I snapped off my my little PCI Slot retainer clip (know idea how)

Any one know a way to fix it. It's never happened to me before.

Its just a PCI x latch. Won't effect anything. Carry on using board as normal.

May well just clip back in but like I say not necessary.

You think it would glue back on, for aesthetic sakes

Will you see it if the graphics card is in?

Klunt Bumskrint · 10 Jun 2015 at 17:47

No, I'd feeel better

This is the excuse you need to upgrade and buy more things

I done it with mine forgetting my GPU was actually locked in. It just clipped back on so I was fortunate.

Done it on my old x58 board, still works fine today, years later

Worth trying a dab of Araldite.

I got this amazing Superglue from a carboot sale. He was sticking stuff to other stuff it was brilliant! I bought it on the spot. I'll try that.
