Solution
Most definitely would have gotten a different case. If you can, I would highly advise trying to cancel the order on the case and get a different on. The CM Elite 431 is pretty low quality. There's better cases in the $50 range, like the:
Corsair 300r - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139016
Corsair 200r - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139018
CM HAF 912 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119233

Everything else is good!
