GA-X38-DQ6 back plate screws
« on: April 15, 2010, 11:53:23 am »
Hi sorry if this is in the wrong section ladies & gents.

Just need to know if gigabyte can spare me the 4 little screws that fit on the back plate for the GA-X38-DQ6 which I had to remove due fitting a after market cooler 2 years ago, I can't find the things anywhere.

Thanks

Hi

Do you mean these 4 screws for attaching copper heatsink of chipset to the PCB?
ZX-S & C64 are still my favourites ;-)

On mine there are 3 small screws that fix the backplate they screw in near the CPU area

You can just see them here


I have found 2 but cant find the other one, I have just used the 2 it seems to hold it firmly enough.

Hi

Thanks for the photo.
So how many of such screws do you need: 4 or 1?
ZX-S & C64 are still my favourites ;-)
