Step 4Preparing the Case for the Motherboard
The case will usually come with a bunch of screws. In the Cooler Master cases (and many/most other cases) they will come with strange shaped ones that allow you to screw another screw into the top of them. You will need some kind of wrench to install them.
Take your motherboard out and line it up with where it will go in the case (with the ports on the back lining up with the holes in the I/O plate). Find the holes in the motherboard and put one of the strange screws under where a hole would be on the case. Screw it down and repeat for all the holes on the motherboard. If you do not have enough screws, make sure the outside of the motherboard is supported by screws and try to get as many in the middle as possible after that.
