Aurora R13, lost my 3080 Ti retention screws and backplate screws
Alienware Aurora R13
I know how this happened. I was cleaning, trying to prepare my room for when my mother came home from the hospital after being unresponsive. I don't even remember throwing them away. I went out to the trash with a flashlight and rubber gloves to search for the screws, but I had no luck. I just got cold and wet from the storm that night, and they disappeared like magic. I made a video of the screws I need. Please assist; I am at a great loss for words over this.
[Lost theses screws for 3080 ti dell alienware r13 pls help!](My Screws I lost in video)
its a total of 15 screws
4 for the outside backplate were threaded
5 in the middle of the backplate had a shoulder I think they are ( M2 2mm x 3mm slotted pan head shoulder screws stainless steel
6 had springs on them for the actually GPU chip
I don't even know where to get help if this is the right place or not I am lost in the woods..
