Permanent and Optional Standoffs
Standoffs prevent short circuits by securing space between the motherboard and
the chassis surface. The SC819 chassis includes permanent standoffs in locations
used by most motherboards. These standoffs accept the rounded Phillips head
screws included in the SC819 accessories packaging.
Some motherboards require additional screws for heatsinks and/or general compo-
nents. Optional standoffs are included for these motherboards. To use an optional
standoff, you must place the hexagonal screw through the bottom the chassis and
secure the screw with the hexagonal nut (rounded side up).
