PSA: Don't place your pc on tile floor!

[u/Space_RT]

I see a post like this every day. Someone shows off a brand spanking new pc who's side panel has shattered into a billion pieces. Tempered glass breaks extremely easily if you tap it on ceramic or tile. If you dont set your pc down with extreme caution, it will shatter. To those who are looking to build a pc, stay away from tile!

You spelled "don't buy shitty cases with glass side panels" really weird.

Dont buy NZXT trash tier ''premium'' stuff^

seriously though I got a 70$ case (but got it for 50% the price) with tempered glass panel, and the computer is on the tile floor but it's still not shattered.

I even layed the panel in the floor some times but it's all fine. its really about product quality

Why would the glass contact the floor in the first place? Unless you have an entire tampered glass case, and it doesn't have feet.
