Securing the Motherboard into a System Case
Most system cases require installation of standoffs into the chassis to allow the
motherboard to be mounted to the chassis and prevent short circuits. If there are
studs that do not align with a mounting hole on the motherboard, it is
recommended that you remove that standoff to prevent the possibility of a short
circuit; also ensure that all needed standoffs are fully tightened before attaching the
motherboard to the chassis. Please review the installation manual included with
your chassis for the proper installation of the motherboard standoffs.
1.
Carefully place the motherboard onto the standoffs located inside the
chassis.
2.
Align the mounting holes with the standoffs.
3.
Align the connectors to the I/O shield.
4.
Ensure that the fan assembly is aligned with the chassis vents according to
the fan assembly instruction.
5.
Secure the motherboard with four (4) screws (See next page for mount hole
location). Ensure that each screw is lined up with and screwing into the
corresponding standoff under the board. Double-check alignment to make
sure nothing gets cross-threaded.
Tip: If you have difficulty with getting some of the screws fastened,
especially near the I/O hub, first try to loosely fasten all other screws on
the motherboard, but don’t completely tighten the screws. This may help
to hold the board in place, allowing you to thread and fasten the remaining
screws. Once all screws are properly threaded, remember to go back and
tighten the rest of the screws.

See the picture below for a zoomed-in view of a hole to place over a
standoff, as well as the locations of standoff holes for the Z270 STINGER.
