Hello, First of all, yes, it does fit. Because the mainboard is suitable for AM4 and secondly the fan supports AM4 according to Digitec's homepage. Specifically, the backplate has been manufactured independently by Be quiet in order to mount such fans on a mainboard with AM4 support. Greetings
Unfortunately no, only the following coolers are supported: Shadow Rock Slim, Shadow Rock 2, Dark Rock 3, Dark Rock Pro 3 and Dark Rock TF.

Since I was in the same situation: No. You can use the kit to install (certain) Be Quiet coolers (Dark Rock Pro 3, Dark Rock 3, Dark Rock TF, Shadow Rock 2, Shadow Rock Slim). However, the kit is not a direct replacement for the original backplate, as the cooler compatibility is severely limited. Here is what you are looking for: https://www.arctic.ac/ch_de/amd-am4-socket-backplate.html https://www.arctic.ac/ch_de/amd-am4-socket-backplate-bracket.html However, no Swiss retailer has the product in their range and Arctic (although they were based in Switzerland until recently) no longer deliver to Switzerland since the change in the VAT law - I had also asked Digitec if they could organise the item for me as a corporate customer of Arctic - unfortunately no. If you have money problems, here is a non-original replacement that I also ordered (and which actually arrived). It comes close to the original in terms of quality, on Amazon you only get plastic scrap replacements): https://www.ebay.de/itm/CPU-Heatsink-Bracket-Backplate-Back-Sheet-Iron-Plate-Durable-for-AM4-TY/392683048244 Otherwise: Return the board...
No. Only fits: be Quiet Shadow Rock Slim, Shadow Rock 2, Dark Rock 3, Dark Rock Pro 3 and Dark Rock TF.
That won't work, the holes on the mounting kit are too far apart and those on the radiator are closer together. Source: I have a pure rock slim here for comparison. and the mounting kit in use with another old cooler.
The specified mainboard and CPU cooler both have the AM4 socket. You do not need the AM4 kit.

This should work because the x570 motherboard has an AM4 socket and the holes are the same for all AM4 sockets.
