A standoff is a threaded separator of defined length used to raise one assembly above another. They are usually round or hex (for wrench tightening), often made of aluminum, brass, or nylon, and come in male-female or female-female forms. In electronics they are frequently used to raise a printed-circuit board above a surface. Insulating standoffs keep two parts from touching each other, thereby preventing an electrical short.

How do you keep a motherboard from touching the base of the metal case?
Usually, when you buy a computer case it comes with standoffs which get screwed on to the case (there's usually at least 6 and as many as 10) and then the motherboard sits on those standoffs instead of on to the case itself. The motherboard standoffs serve the purpose of avoiding direct contact between the motherboard and the case itself so as to avoid a possible electrical discharge which would in turn damage the motherboard. There are holes on the case where the standoffs should be placed.
How do you attach a PCB to a case?
To attach a PCB to a case, you can use standoffs, screws, or clips designed for securing PCBs.

Ensure that the connections and components are not obstructed and that the PCB is properly grounded if necessary.
