Hyper 212 evo screw snapped

[benikens]

Is there a way to replace a broken screw from the mounts on a hyper 212 evo?

Local Pc store may have a suitable replacement, if not then take on of the unbroken ones to a hardware shop, they'll have something
lastly you could contact Coolermaster and ask them for one

Thanks Moto, we went to the local Bunnings hardware store but they didn't have anything suitable going to try some pc stores tomorrow, sucks was halfway through a major rebuild/upgrade to a mates rig when the screw just snapped

I have a bag with bloody hundreds of screws I've picked up over the years so I rarely don't have a suitable replacement,
looking at the fixing kit here, http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=6741
which screw is it you've bust? the little black one, the silver one with a knob, or the big one that goes through the 'X' bracket?

It was one of the big ones with springs going through the X bracket

My member config is current but this isn't for my rig its for a mates. The store he bought it from are being exceptionally painful, had to email them images of the screw before they will consider a replacement they refused to even look at it when we brought it into the store. I'll let him know about ebaying a replacement, $5 to not have to deal with poor customer service is money well spent.

Glad to see you got back
I'd rather pay a couple of quid than deal with morons as well hehe,
and of course he knows where not to shop next time,
theres a saying in the hospitality industry, happy customers tell friends, unhappy ones tell everybody....
