Good Day, I have an MSI 990FXA-GD80 with Aerocool Xpredator X1 White Edition.

My problem is that the motherboard is short (standoffs are short) such that the lower 6gb/s sata ports can't be used because the case has a bulge area between the motherboard area and the pre-drilled holes.

So my question is, will any kind of standoff work? I'm planning to buy a taller one.. What kind of standoff will work and won't cause and damage whatsoever.


Thanks,
