    What's up guys? I already have all the parts and it's a really good PC i'm putting together. I just had a quick question when I screw the motherboard into the actual case. Should I use any washers or anything between the motherboard and screws?

    thanks,

    Nope, no need for washers, they may even do more harm than good if electrically conductive. Just don't tighten the screws too much, risk breaking the mobo.

    yeah agreed with augie, also just take your time theres no rush and when handling hardware like mobos remember to ground yourself first on a radiator or similar
    alternatively get yourself an antistatic wrist strap for a couple of pounds;)
