Yeah report it so they're aware of it.
Please remember that any mention of competitors, hinting at competitors or offering to provide details of competitors will result in an account suspension. The full rules can be found under the 'Terms and Rules' link in the bottom right corner of your screen. Just don't mention competitors in any way, shape or form and you'll be OK.
Notify the retailer that the screw is missing so they're aware and ask them where you stand on returning the product. (if you decide to do that after/before using it)
Im not gona bother trying it, as too much faff on getting it in, i got to take both my case side panels off, so i can find where the rear fans connected so i can unplug it, then ive got to feed the wire through so i can remove it, then ive got to squeeze the pump in its place, and then i'll have to do it all in reverse to get the bugger back out.
Yeah i'll give them a ring.

Was it factory sealed, or pre-opened like that chap's one earlier on?
The box wasn't factory sealed no.
RMA'ing it, god knows when i'll get another one now, im bloody gutted, can't believe it, hex screw missing
It's not in box is it loadsa?
Does look a little too pristine to be a return. Is there marks on the pcie connector ?
Still, maybe for the best. I think my curiosity would have got the better of me though
What an anti climax. Totally gutted for you. Its clearly not acceptable and ridiculously daft but I can only hope it's happened because they have had their pumps changed over and the person who has done it has done a rush job.
If it was me personally I'd keep it, order another, pinch the screw and return the 2nd card.
Does it effect warranty/ RMA's etc to remove the hex screws so we can see if there's a pump revision doing the rounds? No doubt there's an answer out there already.
Ive had a good look inside the box, just in case it was just inside somewhere, but nope
