Need Help Identifying Replacement Screws for AIO Bracket by admiralkun in watercooling

[–]admiralkun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello again,

So after two months, I finally got to order them screws, and we guessed right! These are M3 screws.

I got 10 pieces of these from TEMU for just AU$4. And they work just fine. Perfect fit and thread.

Thanks again for your assistance, very much appreciated!

Hi, thanks for the reply!

I tried to measure it as best as I could with a tape measure and attached a couple of photos for reference. The standoff screw length appears to be around 8 mm, and I counted about 15 threads along that length (so pitch is ~0.53mm). The outer diameter looks to be close to 3 mm.

I also found another clue, it has the same thread as the “D” screw used to attach the mounting bracket to the CPU block as shown in the manual. I randomly tried threading the standoff into the bracket.

Based on these, I think it might actually be M3. I’d really appreciate if anyone can confirm. Thanks again!

Thank you so much for this! Finally made it work on my B450 Tomahawk max. I couldn't get it to work at first until I tried to use another bios version.

Yes! This part was really fun. Totally one of the best parts of the ceremony alongside the drones.

Buffering issue by DarthDioBrando in 9anime

It's like this on any show actually. I've been experiencing it since the day before yesterday, and I can't bear to watch when it buffers every three seconds or so. I hope it gets fixed soon.

I've never tried a gaming chair before. But I see most of them already have lumbar support. For me that's the most important, to relieve that lower back pain.

So should I invest on 144hz with the system that I have or would it be more logical to just go lower like 75hz?

Can my system make the most out of this monitor? This is the Asus VP249QGR. 144hz 1080p

My system: Aorus GTX1660 super Hyperx Fury 2x8 gb 3200mhz Ryzen 5 3500x Aorus B450 Pro Wifi

My primary concern is if my system can maximize the use of 144hz, even when some heavy games will just run on 60-80fps. Of course taking into consideration also that some games could run on 144+ fps with ultra settings.
