zotac 970 small screws?

[whm1974]

I purchased a InRoberts replacement Fans for my 970 April last year and now I have to replace those. They however do not come with any screws and I dropped some last time. Where can I get that size? Can I Jury-Rig a case fan to the card instead? How can I do this?

jerry-rigging a no-bezel fan to heatsink , possible, but I can't stay much about safety.
Jerry rigging a case fan to heatsink, possible, zip-ties, vhb tape, & duct tape

Well, your best bet is to grab one of the screw, then either measure it using calipers, or bring it to nearest hardware store / pc store and see if they have one that are the same size & length. (Keep in mind that the threading size/length sometimes matter too)

I just looked at my older EVGA 760 and the screws might be the same size... From now on I'm going to recycle GPU screws...

There's lotta more option you can do. I usually prefer:

• Tape
• Some screw with almost same size found at old part
• Cable ties (zip ties)
• Super-stick glue
• Clip

More. Just find and stick the fan in the GPU.

Thanks. I might go to the hardware store and see if I can buy the same size.
