Is One Standoff Enough for My PC Build?

Asked By CuriousCoder92 On

Hey folks! I'm currently in the process of building my PC and I've run into a bit of a situation. I noticed that the case I have only has one standoff available for the motherboard. It's an ATX case paired with a MATX motherboard (I know, I know, it's the best option I could afford). The case has these metal parts sticking out (I'll try to add a pic in the comments), but I'm wondering if having just this one standoff will be okay. Thanks for your help!

You might want to check the case model, but it's pretty common for cases to come with one standoff pre-installed. Typically, they also include a hardware kit with extra standoffs. Just make sure you find that kit! The standoffs are usually what keeps the motherboard elevated properly, so they're important.

It's a Thermaltake V3 Black Edition. I bought it used and it only came with this one standoff. Should I look into getting more? I appreciate your help!
