CANCER Warning for ULTRA Product PC case

Hi  

Its just stupid Health and Safety rules and regulations....don't worry about it..

Did you know that ordinary engine oil would fail those tests and be Cancerous as well...lol

All the best Brett  

I wouldn't worry about it either, you're more likely to get cancer from the vapours of petrol when you refill your car with petrol.

^unless you sniff your case like how some druggies sniff mousepads, you are fine.

and we all know not to buy from ultra as well

The strong smell of many plastic products from China may have many origins. Sometimes it comes from the chemicals used to remove the parts from their injection molds (that is described sometimes as an acetone or butterscotch smell). Washing with water and soap usually gets rid of that type of smell. Another reason for the smell comes from fumigation of the containers carrying the products (that smells like gardening sprays). Washing should again help remove this smell.

Another type of smell comes from the plastics. If the case includes some type of PVC, the smell could be outgassing of phthalate plasticizers. Washing will not help. It is also commonly used as wire insulation. The more flexible the PVC the more the need to add phthalates. Many phthalates are banned in children's toys in the US. If the stuff is outgassing, it can take years for it to stop.

just stop making out with the case and you will be fine.

Thank you all for your time and advise.

Looks like you know more then me, since I have never paid attention to those labels on computers.
I will try to reuse my old Dell case and will return Ultra case just to be safe since Ultra cant tell me what chemicals they used to build their product.

Why so you say we know not to buy from ultra?
Did you have bad experience with them?

we all know cheap brands are never to be trusted. for me, the rule of thumb for cases is to look first at antec and then move your way up. antec always builds a solid case at pretty much any price point
