Each side of the mainboard should have a buffer zone from the internal wall of the chassis. The side
of the mainboard that accommodates the I/O coastline should have a buffer of 1.00 mm. The side
on the opposite end of the I/O coastline should have a buffer of at least 5.00 mm. The two sides
adjacent to the I/O coastline should have at least a 10.00 mm buffer.
For the side that is close to the PCI slot, the buffer should be at least 100.00 mm if a riser card
module will be used.
