I'm already to build the new monster machine, open up the new case and there are nine little reddish brown plastic washers with the nine brass offsets to attach the mobo to the case. What are these washers for and where do they go? between offsets and case, between offsets and mobo, up my nose??? I've never seen them in any other machine I've looked at. Don't think I need them but certainly don't want to screw up something as simple as this.

Thanks for the help (and not making fun of me...)

I would think that the washers are to isolate the back of the motherboard from the case.

That's the only thing that makes sense to me - I've just never seen them before.
