I switched out my Poker case a few days ago and was stupid enough to strip two of the screws on the side, does anyone know the name of the type of screws the Poker uses or where I can get replacements for them?

i doubt it can

I believe they are M2 screws, but I can check if you like (and no-one else knows for sure)

if it's not too much to ask could you please check? i don't want to have to get a donor board just for 2 extra screws bc this one is flexing really badly now that the side ones are gone

It's something like a M2x5 give or take, it has an integrated washer as well.

Sry, my good one is at work I don't really trust this thing.
It says 2mm by ~6.5mm - ~1.5mm for the head.
Edit: go with M2x4mm I think 0.4mm pitch

OK thank you very much, those are probably really obscure but I'll try to find them :D
Edit:Can I just transplant washers from the stripped screws?

Well, I really think its a M2-0.4X5W5 SEMS screw. Just getting a handful would be a ***** and a carton of 4k is ~$110. You can always call or email a distributor or manufacturer, and ask for a sample. ;D
Or just use a M2 X 4mm PAN head screw easy to find.

I got replacement without issues at my local DIY store .
