Missing M.2 screw Tomahawk B450

[Deleted User] · 2020-01-28 12:06:54

Anyone know the spec and place to procure the screw for M.2 Drive screw, on a MSI B450 Tomahawk Max? Standoff space is on the board but no screw. Apparently they can be taped to the back of the board, no luck. Took out the box and not in that either.

they are usually M2 2mm flat top screws. Best option would just to be buy some off amazon, thats the type of thing that's next to impossible to pick up easy here.

If youre stuck and happen to have a 2.5" drive laying about, the screws used to hold down the PCB are M2 and fit perfectly fine.

I actually do somewhere. Will have to go take a look

At least the standoff is there, it's MSI propitiatory so hoping that the screw is standard
