My case only has four standoffs, so I have none anywhere except on the corners of my motherboard. Will that be fine, or will the components push the motherboard down that much?

 

i3-6100

ASUS Z170-A

8GB Ballistix Sport

 

^ Only things that could effect motherboard weight. Will I be fine? This is my first build.

Any case that doesn't have all the motherboard standoffs pre-installed should have them in the accessory bag- hell even my $23 case came with them. OP Which case do you have?
