Hi all,

Recently built a new PC with the following case and motherboard.

Everything installed just fine but I had an issue that I couldn't find much about on the internet.

One of my mobo screw holes does not have a corresponding case standoff or even a hole for a standoff.

The other six holes are screwed in fine and the mobo seems well supported in the areas that count (near ram). There was a little flex installing the front panel connectors but nothing that seemed harmful.

There IS a standoff about an inch away from the mobo hole (it doesn't touch the mobo).

Anybody seen this on micro ATX builds?
