I picked up a Antec 180 Mini recently on the cheap.

Decent condition except the previous owner has stripped every single pci bracket screw socket :mad: No idea how you would do that but there we go.

What size screw are these originaly? I would like to tap them out to a size or so bigger if I can find the right kit, any links would be handy!

Thanks in advance.
 
Probably varies from case to case.
In my earlier cases (and others I've been fixing) those have been 6/32s but in my last cases with thumbscrews iin there (CM Stacker, LL A71) those have used M3.

If those were M3s then it might be possible to just tap that stripped hole for 6/32 which is slightly thicker screw.
