Installing the standoffs once, then not having to remove the mobo any more is nice. I chose it almost for that alone, since the innovatek is like 75 bucks.
I just dremeled four square holes in the mobo tray to make removal from the mobotray back easy .having a removable tray would be the best though .

Some people have had trouble with the bolts sticking/locking into the standoffs(cause they are different metals), when it happens it tends to rip the neoprene gasket of the UH blocks!, put some copper grease in/on the standoffs and bolts to stop them freezing together, cover the length of bolt that touches the inside of the neoprene with Cu grease to, to stop it snatching/gripping and ripping (W00T I'm rapping ) the gasket. Swiftech are apparently addressing this problem soon by making the standoffs and bolts out of the same metal/material. don't know how soon or if it's gonna happen though.
