Anyone place anything between the motherboard and the case? i have never. I also use regular screws to hold it into place to the case wall.

anyone see a problem with that?

thanks

your not using the motherboard mounts!!

please don't say your just screwing the mobo in without using the bronze mounts.

I'm just using metal screws that came with the hard drive. Is that bad?

So the entire back of the motherboard is touching the case? lol

Why do you ask this question, btw?

 

[baronvongogo]

if you have done that did the computer work?

your not meant to just screw the mobo into the case, you use the bronze mounts then screw into those. It stops the motherboard shorting out by being in contact with the metal case lol

I just screwed it to the case.

So you guys recommend me taking it out, and putting in those things, THEN placing the mobo on top... THEN screwing them in? IS that right? hahaha thanks guys.

oh btw, yes my computer works just fine. I asked because I heard I wasn't supposed to do it my way. ^_~

I think you know exactly how it works.

lol yes I would recommend taking it out and using the motherboard mounts, mainly as it could cause problems in the future.
