If we are talking about regular glue, then absolutely not. Stronger stuff can help with low torque stuff but in my own experience it never worked.

Will super glue work?

Nope.
Super glue is pretty weak when it comes to side pressure, including twisting motion.

Especially when it only have little surface to bond with

 

If it's glue your best bet would be fully cured epoxy glue

Alr will Gorilla Epoxy glue be a good option?

No idea, I don't have gorilla brand in my country.
Nor have I ever need to remove a really badly stripped screw that I need epoxy.

 

My answer before just basing on how strong epoxy glue usually is after fully cured.

 

Be careful though, if you spill it on other parts of the GPU, it basically almost impossible to be fully removed.

Well. Don't forget to :


1. Clean the surface you're going to apply the epoxy from oil using isopropyl alcohol


2. Figure out the way to keep the screwdriver attached to the screw at the angle you want until the glue is fully cured.

JB Weld is arguably the best consumer epoxy for most applications according to testing by Project Farm on YT.

 

Personally, though, I would get a strongly magnetic bit designed for removing damaged screws. Is the screw head or threads stripped?

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 😉 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.

My phone's auto-correct is named Otto Rong.🤪😂
