Question on size of screws for case.

[Da Fan Man]

Hey all,

Working on my new case and have been looking for a cool type of screw/fastner to use in a few different areas of the case. I've found a couple I like, however I can't remember off hand what the standard size is for case screws like what all the thumb screws are. (Coolermaster case, not lian li so it's not their non-standard size)

I seem to remember either 6-32 or 8-32 I'm really hoping its 8-32 as I've found the screws (pictured below) that I want to use in that size. I googled without much luck and checked through the FAQ and didn't find much help there either.

This is a picture of the screw Im basicly looking for, if I do indeed need 6-32 does anyone know of a place that sells these in chrome, online, in that size? Sorry for poor quality image.

Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks for the info guys, and I was looking around Mcmaster already but was having a hard time finding chromed screws. Do they have them and I just missed them?
