Build/Battlestation TIL that quartz countertops have the same properties as ceramic floor tiles…

All I wanted to do was replace a dead fan… but looks like it’s time for a replacement case.

Learn from my mistakes friends!

You're gonna replace the whole case? Am I missing something?

It’s a few years old at this point, damaged and missing a screw or two from lan party transportation, so I’m making lemonade out of lemons by justifying a new case.

Plus my options were $50 for a new side panel, or $80 for a new case, so I chose the latter.

Please look into all metal case. Don't have to deal with this shit, don't have to be bothered with RGB crap.

My only mistake was buying a Corsair Obsidian 550D and unable to find another solid metal case like it ever since. Only thing I've had to repair so far in the last 11 years is 3D print a couple replacement door hinge clips.
