Oh and btw if you look on the other side of the board you can remove that useless hunk of plastic im sure that will be easy for you after mangling your case

>Do I need those little leg things that go on the bottom of the motherboard so that it floats a little bit?
I'm surprised your turd is still alive if you actually didn't use the motherboard standoffs.

>>60397290
You will want stand offs installed between your board and the case. This will affect your boards backplane alignment in the case.

>>60397498
Let's not forget preventing a short circuit between every chip on the board

Just forget about the case and stick your junk in a cardboard box, or something. You'd be better off than way than without the standoffs.

I have several lights with a dome like that. You just twist the glass, but they do stick sometimes. A few taps with your knuckles usually loosens it.

It's like that jar you can't quite open until you tap the lid on the edge of the counter.

>>60397699
Just tell me where I can buy motherboard standoffs locally or what I can use in place of them like balls of wax or putty, etc.

I just want to finish this upgrade so I can play my fucking game.

>>60397737
You might not have the same kind of luck with this motherboard.

>>60397817

There's something called an archive, newfriend.

>>60397864
but then he can't post it to reddit

>>60397841
I can sell you some of my old ones for £2 a pop.

>>60397854
Fair enough. Before I head to best buy I'll see if I kept the old ones around somewhere.

>>60397588
probably from left to right in that picture, mostly because fans on heatsinks are push by default, and it's a bitch to switch the direction of the fan once it's installed.

>>60397841
I know I'm taking the bait here, but...

The thing about standoffs is that they can vary in height based on the case. You'll need to know exactly the right size.

Anyway, not every case needs standoffs. Many poverty-tier cases just have the mounting plate embossed with "standoffs" in the metal. Might as well show us a picture of the mounting plate in the case since you have the mobo out.

With how well you did fucking a case up I hope you're never put on writing anything important.

>>60397976
Okay, yeah. That's the type that DOES need standoffs. You can get them, but you have to make sure they're the right height, or things won't line up.

you realize that if you buy the wrong size spacers your graphic card won't align with the back of case?

you're better off putting everything in a box or on a table until you can get a new case delivered, dumbass.

>>60398617
Yes but those don't touch anything besides the area directly around the holes. That part of the motherboard doesn't have any traces or components.

just another reason to upgrade your case, and you might as well get a c70 because it will last forever and fit everything

Okay for some reason the instant I moved my mouse it freaked out and started clicking everywhere and moving really fast.

How easy does that casse strip down for cleaning, I've always been interested in that case (never looked up a video though heheh)
Getting at the front fans, dust filters?

>>60400662
What kind of mouse is it? Have you tried plugging/unplugging it?

>>60400687
Helped a friend with his first build and we used a C70. I thought it was a great piece of kit. Clean, straight, and easy to work with.

I'll flash the bios just to be sure

>>60400729
It;s on my list for if I get a new case. There isn't much to justify getting one but I've still been looking.
I'll have to look up more info on it.
This is common but loads of cases only have 2 usbs on the front, I like having 4 like on my current case.
Is it easy to get at the filters on the front?
If you have to remove the front panel do you have to detach wires for the front inputs?
