Am currently pursuing a MB standoff mod, to be able to slide the power extension cord connector of the Flex-ATX psu underneath the front of the GPU. Additional benefit: More breathing room for the m2s on the back of the MB.

What does not work (without further modifications, eg. taking off the MB io plate):

- 10 mm standoffs - MB doesn't sit flush anymore, won't connect with the standoffs

What works:

- 5 mm standoffs - very tight fit, so I'm trying out 8 - 9 mm using longer screws and nuts

Work in Progress:
- 7 mm standoffs using longer screws and nuts underneath
- 8 mm
- 9 mm
