Help with gtx 980 spring retension screw sizes

Mads Money

i have a reference GTX 980, and i was wondering what the screw size is on the spring retension that mount the cooler to the card. i need to order a replacement  set since one of mine stripped after last disasembly so its basically impossible to get a proper mount

Had a screw break on a gpu cooler and running with only 3 makes temps complete garbage, though i think its possible to just use 2 screws, when i unscrewed the 3rd screw my gpu temps were good and no artifacting, though thats on my ancient gts 250 and it doesnt have any sort of backplate

M2.5 by 7mm for the reference i believe. Sometimes not easy to come by but 8mm or 9mm are ok if you use washers to space them out a bit.
