Need help finding a replacement PCIe x16 retention clip for ASUS Prime B450M-K II
​
Hi everyone,
The PCIe x16 retention clip/latch on my motherboard came off and unfortunately I lost it.
I have an ASUS Prime B450M-K II. The GPU slot now feels like it needs that clip to properly hold the graphics card in place, so I’d like to buy a replacement rather than risk using the motherboard without it.
The problem is that I have no idea what size/specification I need. I’ve found replacement PCIe x16 retention clips online, but they seem to come in different sizes and I don’t know how to determine which one is compatible with my motherboard.
Does anyone know:
\- What exact size/type of PCIe x16 retention clip the ASUS Prime B450M-K II uses?
\- Are these clips standardized enough that I can buy a generic replacement?
\- Is there a specific measurement I should take from the slot to find the correct one?
\- Does anyone know where I could buy a compatible replacement?
I can also provide photos of the PCIe slot/motherboard if that helps.
Thanks!
