    the one that holds the PCIe mounting bracket to the PCB? - (in the corner near the Video ports)
     
    you still have the screw - go to the hardware store & spend time with the metric nuts

    I think it is an M2 nut. I can not verify without having one on hand, but I am pretty sure that is the size.

    which screw has a nut near the power cables?

    I find that an old medicine bottle or zip lock bag are the easiest way to hold those small parts
     
    If you drop small screw on floor or in carpet, a strong magnet comes in handy .... like the kind you find in a old/dead HD

    with the oem air heatsink, the screw to the right of the power cables on the same side has a nut
