I have so many other screws, but motherboard screws are a damn shortage, and apparently you can't buy this online (from what I've seen/looked for).

Item Wanted: Screws (Motherboard type specifically)
Packaging Essential: Nada
Desired Age: ?
Location: Roodepoort, Johannesburg
Willing to accept a shipped item: Yebo
Ballpark/Budget Amount: R50?

I have a bag full of screws so I might have silver ones (I used all the black ones). I also have standoffs (copper) as well as some AIO (very long) screws. Drop me a PM and I can send you a pic of what I have tonight, maybe even drop it off / meetup if you are desperate.
 
What @Off-The-Chart said, read manual, find screw size, then find a place that sells screws.

Eg. I have EIS, Pinetwon bolt etc that will supply those types of screws in my area. Any type of fastener retailer.

Hey bud if you were in Durban I would have told you to come pick up some from my place.
Your best option is either go to a local pc store they will probably give you those for free or worst case scenario take a motherboard stand off to a local hardware and just get a screw that matches.
They are pretty standard screws bud.
Other options are speak to any friends that have new pc cases and stuff and they should have alot as they give you quite a few with new cases.
 
I forgot to watch my own thread :p thanks for the responses. I might just go visit scorpioman ;) otherwise first try the screw (non dodgy) place.

I am in Randburg and I seem to have a bag of 14 (#6-32-6 silver). Also have M3's and plain #6-32 screws. And they are free.
