Standoffs wont go!

[Cjhalgmad]

So I'm installing a x62 in an s340 elite. When I screw the standoffs on the motherboard they won't screw anymore but they don't reach the back of the mobo and still wiggle around a little bit. Is this safe for installation or do they need to be non mobile?

 

Thanks!

The standoffs are meant to be on the case, not your motherboard. then you place the motherboard so it lines up with the standoffs and use the screws(should be in a bag and labelled in the the little booklet) to screw the motherboard into the standoffs.

I think I messed up explaining this, I put the thing on the back of the motherboard when it is in the case and I screwed the 4 holes. However, the screws feel like they won't tighten anymore and there is still a bit of wiggle room.

You mean the backplate for the cpu cooler?  If so yes they tends to wiggle  until you tight en down the pump/cold  plate  unit
