I think that's not flaw

I hated my ACX cooled 770 SCs, I vouched to never buy that cooling type ever again. Noisey, and not good for actual case cooling. Since I returned to radial cooled 1080 GTX F|E my case temps are way down due to the heat from the gpu being tossed out the back of the case and not down into the center of Motherboard/PSU. I can't believe their able to market the ACX/axial cooled cards as cooler running, yeah sure maybe the gpu itself runs a hair cooler, but the rest of your hardware is eating all that hot air from the ACX fans blowing on the hardware components. I'll argue this with anyone, that radial designs are overall better for motherboard componenets, PSU and rest of case hardware.

Radial or reference style coolers also run hotter on average, and throttle a lot sooner. I'd rather a custom card over
them any day. You just have to compensate with case air flow to dump the hot air out faster than it can accumulate.

Ehh...
 
You have two hands right. Use one hand to hold a small carton in front of the hole and hold the screw in place at the same time, use the other for your screwdriver.
 
Problem solved, and no ugly tape on your GPU. Design flaw... To me this looks more like a flaw of common sense or general hand-eye coordination :)

I've dropped the screw into the shroud before.  The large pcb/cooler on the FTW doesn't make it any easier to hold the screw in place.
Screwdriver was magnetized too, haha.

I just ask my wife to do it. Smaller, less clumsy hands. Rofl
