How do you describe my motherboard risers/mounts/THINGS?

timmins · 3 Mar 2007 at 17:03

So i have the Jeantech phong, and when i sold my old mobo, i forgot these riser thing came with the case, and thought they came with the motherboard, so i sent them away.

So stupidly i'm now left running with the motherboard screwed in once.

Basically, i didn't realise the standard was these screws you have to screw in, but mine you sorta have to pinch, and they go into a rectangular slit in the case.

I don't really know how to search for these, as i dunno how to describe them.

I've checked a few local pc places, but no luck, only the screw in ones.

Any help would be awesome, or if anyone has some kicking around, i'll happily get on the old paypal and we'll do some dodgy deal

yeh but if i google standoffs, i get the screw in ones, which i really don't want.

and could contact jeantech i suppose, just thought this might be quicker, cuz companies always take ages to reply

I'm looking for something like these: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/i...herboard_Standoff_161_0510.html?tl=g4c157s483. Mine don't look like that, but that kinda thing.

cheers guys you're all legends.

sucked when i went into pc world, stared at a display case with the mounts sitting right there, but no. denied.

Thanks guys for your help.

I searched the rainforest in brazil thick and thin, but i dont see how the round plastic ones help my rectangular hole? Maybe i'm wrong.

The lian li are much more of what i'm looking at, but they still look slightly different and im scared they wouldnt fit. If i procrastinate enough today i'll take the one and only standoff from my pc out and take a photo.

I contacted the guy i sold the mobo to but he has no recollection of any standoffs.

So much effort for some stupid little pieces of metal.

How many do you need? I think i have some somewhere...

and i have 8 slots which need filling, but any would be a help mate.

How much money do you need to sweeten the deal??
