Seatingandsecuringthemotherboard
Particularly with Mini-ITX cases, clearances may vary from adequate to tiny to
nonexistent. You may find it's simply impossible to get everything assembled
without making a minor case mod or two, temporary or permanent. With vari-
ous small cases and motherboards, we've had to do everything from tempo-
rarily bending something out of the way to enlarging an access hole with our
Dremel Moto-Tool to supergluing the I/O shield to the back of the case.
We encountered just such a situation with the Antec ISK300-65 case and the
Intel D510MO motherboard. We should emphasize that the problem was re-
ally neither Antec's nor Intel's fault. Although the Mini-ITX specification is
well defined, when you're working in three dimensions with small clearances,
there's enough slop in the specification to allow some problems to occur.
