2.3 Motherboard Installation
All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fit different types of chassis. Make sure
that the locations of all the mounting holes for both the motherboard and the chassis match.
Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fasteners, metal ones are
highly recommended because they ground the motherboard to the chassis. Make sure that
the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in tightly.
Tools Needed
Torque Driver (1)
Location of Mounting Holes
Note 1: Do not use a force greater than 8 in-lbf (0.904 N-m) on each mounting screw
during motherboard installation. Exceeding this force may over-torque the screw, caus-
ing damage to the motherboard and screw.
Note 2: Some components are very close to the mounting holes. Please take precau-
tionary measures to avoid damaging these components when installing the mother-
board to the chassis.
