Installing the Motherboard

who dey

Should I bolt the motherboard to the standoffs as tite as I can? Or should I keep it a kind of "loose" conection? I have it installed already, and I did it with the screws titened, and the motherboard seems kind of uneven, like it's bending slightly in the middle.


Also, there are 8 holes, but the case manufacturer only gave me 6 standoffs and two more additional ones that look more like plugs than standoffs. Would I be okay if I only used 6 standoffs and left two holes empty? Does anyone know what the two ext "standoff" looking plug things would be?

Thanks in advance for any help!
 
The plastic plug looking things are prolly standoffs, they slide into a slot in the case and stick through the motherboard. 6 stnadoffs are pleanty, and DON'T crank the screws down tight. Snug is all you need.
