Where to Buy Missing GPU Screws?

RTX Reference 2080 Ti

 

I'm missing 1 backplate screw. Very small, I can't find a place online. It would be good to have all the screws in case I decide to sell it one day.

Laptop screw kits / mix bags would probably be the cheapest. 

Here's an example kit : https://www.amazon.com/CO-RODE-Notebook-Computer-Motherboard-Graphics/dp/B09LTS1CFV/

 

Though note the smallest are M2, the screws on your video card may be a tiny bit smaller. 

 

Figure out if it's metric standard or imperial ... use a ruler to measure the diameter of another screw and see if it's 2 mm , 1.8mm , 1.6mm etc .. if so it's a metric screw, M2, M1.8, M1.6 and so on 

for reference M.2 is metric size 2, used on m.2 SSDs to hold the ssd down. If your thread is smaller then your option is to search for smaller imperial screws or smaller metric screws. 

As an idea, here's M1.2x2 and M1.6x3 , but sadly you'd have to buy a bag of 200 at $130 (maybe you can go directly at the manufacturer website and buy smaller bags) : 

M 1.2x2 : https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/us-micro-screw/M12-20-M-N-UT/13690988

M 1.6x3 : https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/us-micro-screw/M16-30-M-Z-UT/13690989

My local hardware store matched it to another I had. They counted the threads.
