I am so very stupid.

OKAYYY... someone please help me!
I bought the Thermaltake WingRS 101... It only came with 3 standoffs, so i used other standoffs from my last computer.... after building the comp the PCI cards don't fit because
the standoffs raised the MOBO too high...

i went to the store and asked them if i needed small standoffs, and they told me I don't need standoffs for this Case because it has a panel that already does the job of a standoff...
here is a pic of the case inside:

Wow, I'm wondering the same thing everyone else is, how the hell did you get everything to line up & fit? Unfortunately, sh** happens & we learn from it. Good luck moving forward.

I could be wrong, but I think you only need standoffs for holes in the MB PCB that don't line up with the raised "nubs" in your MB tray. Basically the people at the store were correct.
