ok, so heres my situation. I have a motherboard that I just mounted. It is being held on by plastic standoff's. I have read other forums and also heard that I do not need an I/O plate. I have no I/O plate and the motherboard is beig held on by plastic hold ins. Will my motherboard fry because it does not have enough grounding? I have not turned the computer on yet and I thought I should ask before the first power up. Thanks! I am trying to get by without an I/O shield at the moment. Happy New year!
