Mounting the Motherboard in the Chassis

All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fi t different types of chassis. Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both the motherboard and the chassis match. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in tightly. Then use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard tray. Please note that some components are very close to the mounting holes. Take caution when installing or removing these components to prevent damage to the components.
