match the holes in the board with the holes in the case is a good place to
start

I'm pretty sure there's guides to building PC at either tomshardware.com
or anandtech.com. I've never looked at them, so I can't say how good they
are or are not. I've probably assembled more than a hundred PC's over the
years. I don't ever recall instructions coming with any case. I did have
one idiot that screwed the MB right onto the plate without standoffs
though. When I hired him, he said he had built all his personal PC's. I
guess I should have asked him if they ever worked. Luckily nothing was
actually damaged.
