Asus hero viii m2 screw

[amrod69]

I misplaced the m2 screw and standoff that came with my motherboard (in the little bag), does anyone know where to get a replacement?

Tried the Asus Live Chat support, they said to check the asus eshop. The Eshop only has back plates, no screws they told me.

Hi amrod69, What about aliexpress.com?

I am not sure what size do I have to get... Will a motherboard standoff work?

I recommend you to order a set of crews: I have one of them - very useful thing, please order set for PC (not for laptop - at the beginning I have ordered it, good thing, but a half only for laptop=) ) - this set will contain a lots of different crews for all cases in the life))).

If I had to take a wild guess, I would say it's a 2.5mm M.2 screw. I'm not sure about the standoff. Give me a few hours and I'll measure it for you when I get home. Perhaps you should visit your local hardware store to see if they have what you need.

An alternate option but more costly would be to buy one of those M.2 PCIe Adapters. They come with the standoff and screw. 😛
