Building my next rig right now. Just got the parts for a 3rd rig a couple of minutes ago.

I only have 2 PC cases, so this third rig will need to rest on top of something. Will a 2'x2' piece of plywood be ok? Can the motherboard rest right on top of wood without any issues?
You should probably get some standoffs to hold it away from the wood. It probably would work, but you risk the wood retaining perhaps a little moisture, and therefore being conductive. Or you could have a thin sheet of plastic in between the board and the plywood, that should work.
