My Mother's GPU is not screwed into the bracket

BGGold07

Ok so my mother has a gaming computer and has been fine up until this point, there are no problems with the software itself but the problem is that gpu is sagging, there are no screws that are holding it in place (the case is the fractal design meshify c black) and so this has me worrying about the pc and its future, i dont know what screws go into the gpu bracket to screw it in and i dont know what the bag that the screws to hold the gpu in the case are labeled. could anyone help me with this problem?

If it takes an excessive amount of force to get the screws in, it's the wrong screw but the meshify comes with the screws already installed, holding the slot cowers in

it should be an extremely straightforward process

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

I do hope you have a place in your closet to tuck away the motherboard and all the case screws/accessories. It does become a rather large pain to lose these things, as you've seen.

 

Although if needed, thumb screws can be rather cheap online. All you need to do is google the size and pitch of the screw and get the same kind.

Worst case you can also just remove another slot cover and use the screws from that.

Be sure to QUOTE or TAG me in your reply so I see it!
