Hi,
There is no direct way you can set border width of Combo Box. Just try below code, where I am drawing a rectangle around the combobox to make feel to have bigger border.

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.Paint += DrawBorder;
}

private void DrawBorder(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(this.comboBox1.Location.X - 1, this.comboBox1.Location.Y - 1, this.comboBox1.Width + 1, this.comboBox1.Height + 1);

Pen pen = new Pen(Color.SkyBlue, 4);
Graphics g = e.Graphics;

g.DrawRectangle(pen, rect);
this.comboBox1.Refresh();
}
}

There is no property of set the border width of combo box. You need to write some customized code to achieve this logic.
