Hello folks!

 

I am attempting to install my Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 motherboard into my Thermaltake Commander MS-I (Epic Edition) case. The motherboard apparently didn't come with any standoff screws, but the case came with 2. I'm not sure what to do! It appears as though the case actually has a system that you don't really need that many standoffs. My motherboard fits 6.

 

 

I will provide a few pictures bellow, and you tell me whether or not I can get by with 2 standoffs.

You are going to need at least 6 more to install it safely. Have you checked the accessory bag from the case?

Look at the pictures, I think because of the way the case is set up, I wont need them. There is that "bump" screw on the right side that is suppose to help my case here. I know it is standard to have all of your standoff screws in, but this case in particular is making me wonder whether or not it needs to be all screws.
