Yea! This style are the type you dropped the attached standoffs in the round hole then pushed pushed the motherboard 1/4"-3/8" till it clicked/snapped into place, securing it to the case. One word of caution here: Make sure the standoff distance, the distance between the back of the board and the cases mounting plate, are at the same "stand off" distance. ie: the same installed height be it these plastic ones and the more predominant now metal screw in type. |

Sheesh wardog,
Also, DO NOT use these plastic types unless only needed. They are NOT conductive and our boards we use now require grounding via the fastening screws and standoffs to the chassis of the case. If there is lead built up around the MBs standoff holes where the screw tightens to, that signifies it is meant as a grounding point. Most times if used around the periphery of the board you're ok. It's around devices, slots, and chipsets that these should not be used on todays boards. This is where grounding is much more important, but a corner or two is most times ok. |
