Ok so since I am using a used motherboard and a few other parts I don't have the stand offs nor most of the screws I need. Most kits on ebay are from china and would take over a month to get to me. Can anyone help me find a kit like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA5B53GV4565 but with thumb screws for the back of my case and that won't take a month to get to me...


Or can I buy stand offs and the proper screws locally somewhere, I am located in orlando. I can probably get the standoffs from a friend but I need to know what kind of screws to get and whether I can get them at home depot or lowes. Or best buy or radio shack.

Any help here is appreciated, I have always used new kits so never had to worry about something like this.

Thumb screws are so nice versus using a screwdriver!

this seems to have everything even thumb screws for the case.

Anyone know of any better around 10-15$?

Then found this one.. Going to order it now http://www.amazon.com/Fafada%C2%AE-Computer-Screws-Standoffs-Assortment/dp/B00NPQBO88/ref=pd_sim_147_6?ie=UTF8&dpID=41BW7-5jYEL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=0HRDZ4ENHYWDQCN68XR9


Also I need a way to get windows 10 onto a new ssd all I have access to is two laptops. Best way is downloading win 10 iso to a thumb drive I guess? Also how big of a thumb drive to make a windows 10 iso?
