Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these motherboard standoffs compatible with standard ATX and Micro-ATX cases?
A: Yes. The M3 × 10 mm standoffs and screws are compatible with the vast majority of standard ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX PC cases that feature 6.5 mm screw holes and M3 mounting points. Always double-check your case manual to confirm M3 sizing is required before purchasing.
Q: Why do I need washers with motherboard screws?
A: The included red washers help distribute the clamping force of the screw evenly across a wider area of the PCB. This reduces the risk of micro-stress or cracking around the mounting holes when screws are tightened, contributing to a more stable and secure motherboard installation.
Q: What tool do I need to install these standoffs?
A: The standoffs use a hex socket (Allen key) drive. A standard 5 mm hex/Allen key or a compatible hex bit in a screwdriver set is all you need. The screws can typically be driven with a Phillips-head screwdriver or hex bit set.
