Pre Installed IO Shield

Hi guys,

Just finished putting in a Z390 Aorus Master into a Meshify C. Only noticed the IO shield doesn't look to be sitting right. The board is sitting on all the standoffs and is screwed down. I followed the guide that came with the board down to a tee.

Could I have fitted the board arse ways or does this just happen with home building?

I/O shields are the least precise part of a motherboard. If you adjust it (or rather, if you care to adjust it) then you might manage to squeeze it into the right position.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

How many watts do I need?
