Thats the sort of thing Phanteks should have sent me, rather than just a link to a metal panel. this makes me feel a lot better.

So like, for example, if you set your panel down carefully somewhere and then accidentally kick it, whereupon it tips over and falls onto the corner of your swivel chair leg... or the tool box... or any number of other things...

People usually underestimate the human ability to **** up and break stuff!!

I have literally doen that exact thing with my acrylic panel. thats part of my worry lol

I had a bad start to glass cases when my Phanteks Evolv X arrived with one side smashed into a million pieces

I've unintentionally tested impacts from smaller objects.
I managed to hit the case's glass panel with a fair bit of force whilst playing in VR, it's got an ever so tiny mark where the Vive controller impacted but no signs of any actual cracks... though, I've now moved it behind a unit just to be safe.
