A4000 - Securing the CPU board in place.
 

I bought an A4000 a while back with the A3640 CPU board. It was just hanging from its socket with no plastic support struts so I went looking for those and got the tip to secure it "with other means".

So I got some stuff from elfa.se

48-012-99 Distansbult/zinkpläterat stål 17mm 5mm 12 ST 28,17 SEK
48-492-46 Rundbricka/plast 100 ST 27,16 SEK
48-500-12 Sexkantsmutter polyamid M3 12 ST 28,17 SEK
48-422-71 Kontaktskruvar/stål M3 6mm 12 ST 21,77 SEK

I bought 12 of each instead of 4 since I might need more in the future.

It worked out fine!
