Ok, i brought this case a few weeks ago from eBuyer and it seems a little weird to me. The motherboard tray doesn't have normal slots to just put them brass screw things in, they have like rasied rivvet things (pictures below). The funny thing is some are raised more than others so when you try and mount the motherboard, you have to flex it at the bottom to allow it to screw in.

I thought that all the holes were supposed to be like this, so you can screw in those brass screws to mount the motherboard.

I,ve had a few of those, You only put a riser in the flat holes that line up with you board holes, if any of the rasied ones are touching your board where theres no holes put a strip of electrical tape over it or it will ground out your board. If theres enough of the preraised ones to support your board I would not add any
 
I know that mate, and the holes are in the perfect position it's just that the last two are about 2 - 3mm lower than the rest. Therefore i have to slightly bend the board to get it in. :(

Are they usually like this? Or have i gotten a 'dud'? Thanks for the help by the way.;)
 
Dont like to flex a board much, see if you can find some small plastic washers about the right thickness to make those two level
