Hey, i figured this place would be the best place to ask.
I've been moving my old EP45-Extreme motherboard in and out of different cases over the years, over time i lost the screws used to mount the northbridge heatsink (that big optional thing that uses a PCI slot on the back of the case), some got worn out due to too big screw driver and thrown away, some are just plain lost, my question is quite simple, does anyone know the dimensions of those four screws? I've been looking for the dimensions in the manual and in various reviews but i've found no mention of the dimensions, i'm hoping to replace them.

I'm thinking 2-3mm diameter and 20-30mm long with fine threads, but just estimating isn't really an option, i need to know the exact dimensions.

It is generally only the very large CPU coolers that are likely to foul the first one or even two RAM slots. Most ordinary heatsinks will fit fine.
