I would not skimp on the Standoffs contact Corsair!

Sorry my fault... the Obsidian has 10 standoffs pre-installed, putting 6 in a bag, hence the 16 standoffs total. Thanks for the reply tho

Glad it was simple!

Sometimes some of the standoffs come already installed; check that out.

6 would work if you really really are anxious to get started.
Put them in the corners, and the middle of the sides to give you some support.

I would contact Corsair, and they will send you some more.

In the mean time, why not test your new rig outside of the case?
It is a good way to check things out. If your mobo does not have a power switch to get you started, just touch the twp PWR leads with a screwdriver.
