Tips On Installing Motherboard In Chassis - TYAN THUNDER K8QS Manual

2.22 –Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis
Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary
motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and are gold in
color. Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install the support studs. If you are
unsure of stud placement, simply lay the motherboard inside the chassis and align the
screw holes of the motherboard to the studs inside the case. If there are any studs
missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be
securely installed.

Some chassis' include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are
usable, TYAN recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the
motherboard more securely in place.
