Actually a Medium flat rate box can hold about 65.  But, because of the weight, I would recommend only shipping about 30-40 per box.

So how do you like it Phil?

I'm going ahead and getting 10 of them.  Been looking for something like this to secure my motherboards as all of mine are just "floaters" atm.

Can someone explain the purpose of these versus just placing the motherboard on top of the anti-static bag that the motherboard comes in?

If the rest of your rig is on a home built frame, this allows you to secure the motherboard to that frame without worrying about precision drilling the 6 or 9 holes to mount the motherboard to said frame.  I always found that to be the biggest pain on both wooden and aluminum frames.  On my aluminum frames, I can eliminate running 3x 1/4" flat bar aluminum below each mobo with these.

I cpu mine and  gpu mine  the ¾ inch lift  does allow better  cooling of the mobo cpu socket  and for that matter the entire mobo is cooled.

I mine riseless  so my mobos are multi slotted and having air circulating under the mobo is good.


One thing  he could have done    is drill a few 1.5 to 2  inch holes under space where the  cpu socket is.

But I did that myself

Yes, an area underneath the CPU socket could be cut out, for a slight upcharge.  8)
