I'm facing issues with my Corsair Spec 01 motherboard fitting into the case. The case only has one adjustable standoff screw. Trying to place it in the bottom right slot works, but I can't secure a screw in the bottom left. When I put the standoff in the bottom left side, I can't insert a screw on the right. This forces me to leave one screw hole empty. Is this the correct setup for my microATX board and ATX case?

It's a bit unusual, but the board should stay intact, so just keep it as is.

Search for a different standoff screw. They’re common—could be useful to purchase a variety of PC case screws in a single bag.

Shop around. That's just the first one I saw that had a lot of pieces. There's a lot on Amazon. Get the best value one that will ship in a timely manner imo
