Spacers or standoffs on a motherboard serve to elevate the motherboard off the chassis, preventing direct contact with the metal surface of the case. This helps avoid electrical short circuits, ensures proper airflow for cooling, and provides structural support. Additionally, standoffs align the motherboard with mounting holes in the case, allowing for secure installation of components.
