Is this a motherboard mounting spot?

rushrage · Aug 7, 2013

Hey there guys! Another question for you guys:

Is that top left hole a mobo mounting spot? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28305371/computer/CAM00145.jpg

I know the one below that is, but this one looks different. This would be the 8th mounting hole, and I do have 8 mounting screws total.

Thanks!!!

All mtg holes will have grounding traces around them, and a threaded post for the standoff beneath. That hole can be used for a plastic standoff however, it you feel the board needs more support; i.e. inserting/removing RAM.

I do that quite often when I feel the MB is a bit too "floppy"
