How can i remove a stripped Screw heas from my Gtx 1080ti without a drill?

[OfficialSeeker]

As the tittle states, i need to remove my gtx 1080ti from the waterblock to get a new one as the card went faulty, but i cannot get one screw out as the head has stripped completely.

I have already tried pliers but it keeps slipping off and just scratching the screw.

Thanks

You can always try carefully slotting the screw with a rotary tool or engraver.

If that doesn't work, affix a "handle" of some sort to them with a dab of superglue or something - basically, an extension that you can get a grip on to back them out.

If you can get a purchase on the screw, vice grips can hold the screw incredibly tightly.

Failing that, there are screw remover drill bits.
Find one in the size you need.
They look like this:

You will need a reversible 1/4 inch drill.
