    There is only 2 I believe. The rest of the standoffs are built in. That's why all the holes are raised up.

    Yeah I contacted them, they said all the standoffs are built in which I thought but the manual states standoffs need to be installed so I went ahead and told them bout the typo lol the two in the bag is supposedly for hard drives, least according to the manual.

    I found that to be a nice little feature and I only had to use one brass standoff to screw down near my I/o ports on my EVGA X99 FTW.  The one standoff beneath the processor that "snaps" the board in place was a rather nifty detail.

    Anyone know what the deal is with the one "inverted" standoff (row 2, column 2)?

    It seems it would snap the motherboard into alignment nicely,
    though am I supposed to bolt it down with a nut or something?
    If thats the idea, mine wasnt included..

    Its to hold your motherboard in place when you put the rest of the screws in. No need to use nut or anything. Just leave as is

    As stated above, to hold your board in place to align with the other standoffs to make the screw down easier.
