Standoffs
I'm putting together my first PC and I'm about to install the Mobo. The Case instructions (silverstone LC17) say to insall the standoffs per the the mobo instructions. They don't mention standoffs as far as I can tell. Should I use the Standoffs with the Asus A8N5X and LC 17 case?

yes, locate one stand off for each hole in the motherboard.

Yes, always use them. Just line up the holes from the motherboard to the case and screw in the stand-offs.

And - tighten each standoff into the mobo tray or the case. Don't use the fiber washers that often come with the case. Just set the mobo on the standoffs.

...and only have them where there are corresponding holes in your motherboard. Don't have any extras under the board.
