Just putting my PC together, was checking out my case (200r) and in the middle there is a little nub in the middle, i heard its suppose to help with putting the mobo in, but im not sure, also the case came with standoff screws already in, do i have to move them around depending on my mobo, or are they compatible with every motherboard?
Thanks, Andrew
also the case came with standoff screws already in, do i have to move them around depending on my mobo
You should always check that standoffs are only below holes in the motherboard. If you leave an extra standoff, you can create a short-circuit that can damage your motherboard.
If you are puting a atx sized mobo in the 200r there is a stand off you must remove-the nub holds the mobo in place.
ALLWAYS check the stand off's are in the rigth place.
kind of a newbie question, but im just not sure yet, is my mobo full atx? in pc part picker it just says ATX

Yes thats ATX the 200r has permanently placed stand offs apart from the one in the picture it's placed there for micro mobo's and needs to be removed when puting larger ones in (ATX)
Thank you so much, these pictures are awesome; really helping me out. Any idea how to take them out, just a wrench? Again thank you so so much.
there hex shaped you can use a socket or just a pair of pliers to losen it then just undo it by hand.
(The permanent ones are rounded and wellded to the case so you cant try to remove them)
oh i see, every one that isnt welded wont work for my mobo? ok, I SEE IT NOW, eventually.. i got there.
