Enlight case & motherboard mounting question

Just got an Enlight 7237 and have been modding it slowly for the last few days. I notice that the motherboard mounting "brackets" are metal... In the past, all of my mobos have used those plastic standoffs, that pop into the holes of your mobo and then slide into the case tray. My question is, do I need to put some sort on non-conductive washer on the screws (between the mobo and the metal mounting bracket)? I don't want to fry anything, and this case did not come with any instructions...

Thanks.

nahh, plastic standoffs are cheap. enlight is being good using metal. My ANtec SX830 uses copper standoffs...very nice. :)

U'll have no problems with it. I think there's a ring of plastic around the standoffs, so they aren't touching anything.

Make sure that your risers do not short the mobo. I thought my a7pro was dead in 7237 case and removed some of the risers and it is fine.

The metal is good, grounding! As long as you have any quality in that motherboard, you'll notice that they have nice little metal pads where the screws go. eh?

I'll have to look at the bottom of the MOBO, as I don't remember. It's an MSI K7T Pro2a. Thanks to all for the replys. Much appreciated!
