One of my motherboard standoffs keeps on preventing my motherboard screw from going in . It gets around half way then stops and when you unscrew the screw the standoff comes with it. Can I go without a top left motherboard standoff?

The screw keeps failing to push through no matter how you try.

Do you have any backup stands ready? If yes, move one to the opposite stand-off to lock it in place.

Do you possess the appropriate screw diameter? It's possible to operate without one, but I recommend replacing a lower middle standoff with the top left position to avoid any stress from the rear I/O.

If installation doesn't fit properly, I'd keep the stand in position to avoid movement during power cable setup.

I would also try a distinct screw to fit into another stand-off on the model that is causing the issue.
