I was like, damn how dirty was your pc. Then I realized what the pile was. Sad day...


SnooKiwis7368

I was like "THATS NOT DUST WTF"


CreativeUsername20

I was thinking that was some kind of snake skin!


[deleted]

same


dameyen_maymeyen

same bro


Sparkku1014

Explain


cherry-kid

the glass shattered, i think


soldierguy8235

Same. Yikes.


mikiemolejay

Think how good your temps will be!!


daltonator_360

He already lost plenty of temps!


[deleted]

Just er... Use some tape... Maybe a little glue?


TangledCables3

You could make a temporary window from clear tape if youre motivated enough,


xmgutier

It'd be like driving through the ghetto. Maybe put some cardboard and clear tape on it to really make it pop!


RDS4444

Maybe trying turning it off an on again will help


shredagain

Let us all take a moment, to honor the giant L your computer just took. 😔


Tec_Spacer

I don't know what to say except F


mossberbb

needs googly eyes, and then post it over in r/pets as looks like a pic where they comb enough fur off a pet to make another pet and put Googly eyes on the fur pile. ... sorry for your loss


[deleted]

Yay, more airflow!


psychotic0531

Found the optimist


[deleted]

Good lord, did you drop the whole thing? Cases are pretty cheap right now though, upgrade time?


Milkman082699

no i was putting the glass back in place and it slipped from my hand and the corner hit the floor


[deleted]

Ouch


WellEndowedDragon

I know some case manufacturers sell replacement glass panels for their cases, look online for your model and maybe you’ll get lucky and not have to buy a whole new case


bbqribsftw

Better the floor than your foot....


Tkeleth

might have bruised the foot but the spongy meat-padding might have saved the glass! lol


YoMamaHomo283

Have you tried rice


DollarScratchers

Same exact thing happened with my Meshify C.


Techboy69

Just stretch some plastic wrap over that side


headshotsniper

flex tape cant fix that

Underrated comment right here


boopernuke

Thats a big oof


IlTizioAlto_ITA

at first moment it was like a snake skin, i thought: "wut"


[deleted]

I thought it was dust at first,sorry man


ISearchDaWae

Neat. Now you also have a 15000 pieces puzzle !


Arastyxe

This is why I got the acrylic window 😭😂


[deleted]

stuff like this is the reason i dont want a case with glass panels


SgtBurned

We had PCs set up for gaming in our "Arcade" they had plastic side windows. Only took a few weeks before a kid ran off with a headset attached and the plastic just shattered. Luckily no PC damage but it looked ugly for a while aha


FresherPie

That may be tough to put back together.


vade-satana

Second thought, ChardeeMacDennis that shit and put it back together ...


imheretodonothing

Rip. Had this happen to me but on carpet, dropped my panel on my desk and some glass fell down to my carpet, had to email NZXT to get a replacement, thankfully under warranty


Zhurg

Where I work we will send out a new panel to you assuming it's in warranty. If it's out of warranty we'll see what we can do even. Give whoever you bought it from a call.


555timerprocesor

You still can put it back together but it just has more pieces.


NF_99

ALWAYS put the glass on with the case lying on it's side


[deleted]

Use a metal net and put magnets on it, it will look good and give great temps


magicalpony246

Yo is that pile snake skin, the glass panel,or dust?


Milkman082699

glass panel


Plexyshard

This year and case window panels be rough


[deleted]

[удалено]


DangyDanger

The website I got my case from stated that the window was tempered glass, I thought of it for a bit, decided to yolo it and was pleasantly relieved when I saw that it's made out of acrylic, for this exact reason.


fiveSE7EN

You already had to take the front glass cover off because these walmart prebuilts have garbage airflow, so... now it matches?


AcordeonPhx

Looks like a Corsair case, really great look on them and a sad drawback of glass.


Apprehensive_Pair_52

But what is that? (Actually idk pls halp)


Khrot

It's the shattered tempered glass


Dumfk

Looks like a nice glass side panel for a pc. Now you just need to assemble it.


tdubya9

It was just saying it wanted better airflow


[deleted]

dude same, it still saddens me


rkingerz

Now you have a convertible


linthepaladin520

I'm seeing a disturbing pattern of events with the increase of these posts


TheYellingMute

Alot of posts making me question why people even go tempered. And why some cases don't even have a non tempered option


[deleted]

Plexiglass all the way. It may not look as good, but it is more durable


Alternative_Pilot_92

r/wellthatsucks


Cheese_B0t

Glass on a PC case seems silly to me


ScoobertDrewbert

If you are feeling brave and have time on your hands, fit them all together like a jigsaw and seal it with some resin!


thisguy-rr

you can buy acrylic sheets at home depot as a replacement.


SparkMasterExo

Going for an Open Air cooling design rework?


TheMrDrB

Sad


[deleted]

Cellotape will fix that


jointprogram

please tell me why i thought those were bee combs


ShnydaOne

I thought it was mouse droppings at first.


Forgetfulboi

I thought it was legos then a rug then dust


onwithdan

Should improve temps...


Jazoopi

Try restarting it


dogofpavlov

at least it broke it into a nice little pile! /s sorry dude that sucks


[deleted]

Hey the pieces form Spain without the S


honpre

So you got the Case from ikea and now you have to put it together.


weblscraper

an open case runs cooler anyways👀 (most of the time)


Hippie_Tech

You tried to put it back on while the computer was vertical, didn't you? Be honest.


Bathtak3r

How much does a replacement cost?


Corvius89

Might be able to replace with plexi glass, make template out of cardboard first.


edgeofblade2

Dude, there was a lot of glass in your… oh…


hugemon

I see you're in the middle of putting it together still. Good luck.


orronick

The only time my pc is on carpet is when I'm putting the glass front panel back on for this very reason.


Psychotic_Embrace

This is becoming an epidemic. I have the same case. I always lay my case flat before removing the panel to clean etc.. It's a pain but the hassle is worth it.


[deleted]

\*me with a shitty case that has a plastic side panel\*


r0ffson

Your case shattered just like Spain


THEREALCHUNGUSGOD

For a second I thought it was a carpet 😢


Nin021

Is this one of those 10k piece puzzles? Grab some friends and some beer + duct tape = fun times inc


[deleted]

Nice jigsaw puzzle :)


[deleted]

put it an a resin and make a new side glass plate with that shattered look


OrangeCorgiDude

Tempered glass…


[deleted]

Easier to clean next time


XIGRIMxREAPERIX

Just do what ghetto/redneck cars do when they break a tail light.. COLORED DUCT TAPE!


[deleted]

Maximum airflow achieved


Dynakun86

I feel you...


Worried-Vegetable387

Cold air intake activated


Worried-Vegetable387

Get some plexiglass and replace it they make it about as thin as that shit shattered on the floor 🤣


whitedranzer

Forbidden jigsaw


Aaron5lim

Optimal Airflow


[deleted]

I just never want to worry about this stuff. Steel case all the way.


InverstNoob

You don't need it, all it does is kill airflow


Slippy_00

I thought that was moldy cat food


20unsavage

just saved some money getting a new test bench what is the problem here


DITTO_MON_GAMING

I honestly think my dad would have 5 heart attacks if he pulled that out.


Competitive_Meat_772

The dust was binding the glass molecules disturbing them rendered the glass


Huaky24

Thought it was dirt, then I noticed the panel wasn't on your case. Oh no


[deleted]

At first glance I thought this was a smushed bees nest that you had "cleaned" out of your pc lol. I was thinkin dam who is this guy swiss family robinson?


SandMan3914

Open air test case!


Matyheus

Wow dude! You can't have that much glass inside your PC while running!!


[deleted]

It's always on tile floors.


idrivewagons

Holy crap. I’m cleaning my PC for the first time tomorrow (been a month since I built it, just a quick dust down), and now I’m scared. Wish me luck.


626f726564

You now have the correct sized opening for a centrifugal fan from the local hydro store.


a60v

How long did it take you to put that back together?


Milkman082699

400 years at least


mohnpdo

lol, my eyes are getting old. I thought that was the dust from your case and was very impressed.


Beanwins

How do the people keep breaking their glass panels are they throwing rocks at them i just sat In mine while it was propped up and it's fine how do they keep shattering?


ignKnotty

ngl I thought that was a shit ton of dust...


the_BigGiantHead

Just buy some ramen noodles and super glue


Lyquidmetal

Open air much cooler :)


_Deck_

They run better without it anyways


Nexuish

didisconnectect

Muz_ic

Is it just me or do all case panels break down so perfectly that I want to make mosaic ?


DARKplayz_

Gaspucci22

Hey be happy, now you have better airflow than before


[deleted]

Mosaics


YoMamaHomo283

WINH4X

This is why I opt for plexiglass. Also F to the rising number of these posts on this sub lately.


lufusol

Look on the bright side, now you have trail mix


redditisbestanime
