I'm currently working on some mod and I'm desperately trying to identify this screw on the right but must be as long as the one on the left. The problem is, I can only see on the internet the VGA screws but only this short. Since I'm using this DIY solution I'm using those spacers on the left but I don't have the set of 4 but only 3.
What is the diameter of this screw, what type... and is there any source to supply but longer VGA screws?
or all of them are the same.


some reference pictures.
Currently, I have 3 of those on the left but I'd like to have 4, or those on the right with the same thread lenght as the one on the left.

My Ideal Screw would look like this (on the right).
But I'm more than certain there is no such thing to be sourced.

Gigabyte, I've removed cold plate from Heatsink and wants to add on top of that AIO Cooler but with that coldplate inbetween the OEM screw is just to short.

That's my ghetto solution, but I have only 3. I'm looking ideally for 4 longer VGA screws.

I was also thinking about these but with the right diameter

These look great

But it's aliexpress and it will take ages to arrive because 90% of the Ali businesses are not operational due to coronavirus :(
 
That would be great, you can pop me PM later to have a look at them.

Either way, I'd like to be secured so I'm still looking for some info from other users regarding those screws.
 
Measure the outside of the thread. It should be just under one of the following: 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, etc

That makes it "M1", "M1.5", "M2" thread. Most things produced in Asia use Metric thread sizing hence the M.

Then order on in the appropriate length.

yeah, I did that already.
M.2 (measured) + 20mm lenght + nuts + cone spring compressor + nylon washers.

I thought this particular screw can be named, would reduce the shopping list significantly.
