Some cases have those bumps in place of the standoffs. Therefore, you don't need the standoffs. They will work, but some times you can have shorting problems with the bump system if the motherboard is not set just right on the bump/standoff scheme (the bumps that are there). Give it a try and see how it works, it may be just fine. Those do come as you mentioned in the CHEAP cases so you get what you pay for in that situation.
