I built this computer in June. I bought this junk case from raidmax and I'm very unhappy with it. It came dented so the psu isn't securely mounted to the chassis. They stopped selling them and I just bit the bullet and dealt with it, but now I have more problems.
USB 3.0 in the front has failed
The fan is SO LOUD and is junk. Spins at quarter speed and sounds awful.
It essentially does not fit my GPU. Its kinda bent. Yikes.
What do you recommend?
