Each motherboard hasdifferent standoff layout. It ishighly
suggested that yourefer to your motherboard's manual when
installing motherboard intothe Case. Thecases are applicablewith
Standard ATX,Micro ATX motherboards.
Your motherboard may requirea special I/O Panel, which shouldbe
included with yourmotherboard.
Placement Direction:
When installing themotherboard, make sure you follow thedirection
provided by yourmotherboard manufacturer. On most standard
motherboards, the edgewith external ports goes to therear part of the
chassis. It ishighly recommended thatyou install CPU, heat sink and
modular components beforefixing the motherboard inside the chassis.
