Its funny how there's usually a simple solution to a mechanical problem. I got a used case where one of the holes for screws on the expansion slots is ruined. Standard screws will not go in, and bigger ones won't either. So I just used one of the million MB standoffs on the backside to give it something to screw into. Problem solved! It doesn't even block any ports on the video card.

I've got craploads* of screws and MB standoffs in bags. Its funny because this solution didn't come to me yesterday, but it smacked me right in the face as soon as I woke up this morning. I was actually looking at new cases online last night, but I would really rather stay with this one because its freaking huge and super quiet.

I have drawers full of all different bolts, screws, washers, etc. that I've accumulated over the years. It's funny how something you might have just tossed because it was 'extra' at the time comes in handy years later.
