Good afternoon!
I have an Acer Aspire v3 771g laptop
I put a 772g cooling system there.
I have a question. Tell me what kind of screws you need to use to fix the cooling system with the motherboard? Can I have a photo and a name/dimensions?

Haven't you got the original Aspire V3-771G heatsink screws? As you can use those for the V3-772G upgraded new heatsink, here is some info from the Aspire V3-771Gs SG about the heatsink screws specs, there are 6 screws of the type M2*3. For all the other screws and for the fan get a screw set from either eBay or Amazon as they have a range of these screw sets.
Here is a link to a set from Amazon >>>FandWay 500Pcs M2 M2.5 M3 Laptop Notebook Computer Screws Kit that has the M2*3 screws for the Thermal Module and others screws if you haven't got them that might be useful for the V3-771G.

Use the original screws from the V3-771G to secure the V3-773Gs thermal cooler, with the V3-773Gs fan you need to have a screw set that have many sized screws that you can fit and match to secure the fan, do it that way as its allot simpler as you will need to buy a screw set anyway.
Thanks. The main question is what kind of screws

Thank you very much for the information. In the original, I have screws from a simple cooling system as in the photo.
The fact is that I put an improved cooling system from another model, it seems v 772g and there people say that the screws are different with a spring, so the question arose. Do you need old screws with a spring or will they fit?
Here's a look at the new photo. They are different from the blacks. It's interesting to find out which ones are here
Those spring-loaded screws are very hard to get so you will have to compromise and load the M2*3 with a spring and try that or search the web for the Aspire V3-772G M2*3 spring loaded screws if they are available? That is the only option that you have.
