I'm just starting the build with the very small Ncase M1, Asus Z170i Pro Gaming, Corsair SF600 PSU, i7-6700k, 1 SSD, and the Corsair H100i V1 AIO exhausting air out the side w/ 2 Vardar 120mm fans.

I had to move the power outlet plug connector over one position on the back of the case to make more room for the placement of the rad/fans. The connector was held in place by 2 Phillips head screws. One came out, but the other one was in sooo tight I stripped the head trying to loosen...

Oh boy, how do I get that very small screw out?

Thx.
 
Um do you have a pic? How bad is the head stripped? Can you get like a flat blade in there and work it out? You can also try some electrical tape on top of your Philips driver to see if you can get some grip on the head. Worst case you could just drill it out, or get a stripped screw out kit.

Badly stripped, and I cannot get a flat blade in there as it is flush with the case. Yes, I'll have to drill it out or get that "stripped screw out kit". Thanks.
