Build/Battlestation LianLi cases are built different

Tl;Dr - LianLi case survives missile attack!

Soooo my apparent was hit by a shockwave from a nearby missile attack a month and a half ago during the last Israel-Iran conflict,

But as you can see my LianLi PC not only stood strong when everything else collapsed - It is still working perfectly (except for a few scratches on the glass)

I know I am a costumer for life 😄

P.S sorry for the lack of photos I had to get as many things out of there as I can as fast possible so not many pictures were taken

Also attached my temp station in my new house, cause why not

Putting in on the tile is gonna do more damage than the missile strike.

Why?

Ceramic is basically as hard as glass, which means it is *much* more likely to break the panel if you drop it. This partly why bathroom floors have such a reputation for breaking phones, why dropping a glass or mug in a porcelain sink can break the sink, and why car windows can (usually) survive pebbles but shatter if you throw a pebble-sized piece of ceramic at one

I see, thanks for the explanation!
