Thermaltake VI5000BNS, User Manual

Each motherboard has different standoff layout.  It is highly 
suggested that you refer to your motherboard's manual when 
installing motherboard into the Case.  The cases are applicable with 
Micro ATX motherboards. 
Your motherboard may require a special I/O Panel, which should be 
included with your motherboard.

Placement Direction:

When installing the motherboard, make sure you follow the direction 
provided by your motherboard manufacturer.  On most standard 
motherboards, the edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the 
chassis.  It is highly recommended that you install CPU, heat sink and 
modular components before fixing the motherboard inside the chassis.
