Hello!
I have Asus P5E3 and SilveStone TJ-10. When I tried to put mobo into the case – on the supporting removable plate, I discovered that mobo holes doesn’t match with risers (spacers) holes approximately 0.5-1mm, and to be able to a attach a mobo I have to push hard toward the baseplate (at the back). This could be possible happened because of Asus attach a rubber strip(covered by silver foil) onto backplate, which prevent it to properly align mobo holes with spacers (risers) holes.
What should I do: put a pressure and attach with this pressure – but then it will be constant pressure on all inputs and outputs at the back, or I can try drilling a larger holes in the mobo? Also I can remove that silver/rubber thing on back plate – but it can create issues with EMI or short some trails on the mobo. Did somebody have these problems with Asus P5E3?
Also another question with SS TJ-10 (it has PSU at the bottom of the case) – sound or video card on the bottom? I have XFX GT 528mb and Asus Xonar D2.
Please help me with your wisdom – this is my first system, but I already stuck at the beginning.
There are some pictures:

P.S. (sorry my mistakes – English is my second language)
