I have an Asus motherboard which supports two NVMEs. One of them is installed vertical with a bracket with two screws.

I have the bracket but I am not able to find two screws needed to install the bracket. Screw size is same as the single screw needed for M.2 installation. I think screw threading is 2.0 x 3mm CM2x3-3.3

Can someone suggest where can I get the screws from? I need at least 2. If I can get them cheap I will buy a couple of more for backup.

Is this site reliable? Have you bought from them before? How much time they take to deliver.

Yes I have bought from these folks many times before. This is my usual site for keyboard parts :grin: They use shiprocket/fedex and I get mine in 2-3 days

I had these, did not like them at all. These are not sturdy enough for the fans to stay in place if you move the cabinet. I had the fans drop quite a few times while moving the PC that I got annoyed and simple screwed the fan into the case. Now they are rock sturdy.
 
Just a word of caution while buying m.2 screws, its not just about the thread size, but it's also about the head. The head of these appears to be on the fatter/thicker side and may cause obstructions with some mobo heatsinks, causing the thermal pad of the heatsink to touch the screw before touching the memory chips on the m.2 drive leading to uneven contact, I had a similar issue recently.
