Define xl thread

[Judings]

Hello everybody!

So, i decided to make a thread for discussion about the define xl case, and how you can tweak it to make it better and so on. But first I have to introduce a small problem I have had with the case. There seems to be vibration in the case, and I'm not talking about that humming of the hard drives people usually think this problem is when I have googled it, but I mean that real vibration, which I have located to be somewhere around the middle plate dividing the thermal chamber and the main chamber. The vibration occurs sometimes, and i have to push the case a little, or sometimes a little more, to halt it.

Otherwise I have been perfectly satisfied with the case, only downside I can think of is that if you want a side panel window for it you have to make it yourself, when with r3 you can just purchase the alternative panel and be happy with it.

We can't figure this out without having the rig in front of us. You have to try to identify what component is causing the rattling.

You explained where you think it is coming from, but I'm not sure exactly. Can you point out where on this picture, assuming this is the correct case?

The plate between chambers 1 and 2 is causing it most of the time, but sometimes it seems to be the side panels of the case. Also lifting the case a little bit from the nose makes it stop or atleast mutes it.

Is your power supply securely screwed in?

Yes the psu is placed correctly, but I can double-check it.
