Dropped pc case

[StanicEnemy]

I was carrying my pc case but my dad wanted to help me out so i let him to lift it up but my pc case was heavy enough and he just dropped it,although my pc runs like nothing happened except there are some damage on pc case's panel slightly scratched.Should i worry about any error that will appear real soon? or where should i check it out? that happened last night.

I would assume it's fine. If something broke, you would probably know pretty quickly.

Alright,so i should stop worrying about it right? cause i barely managed money to build it 4 years ago and upgraded some parts last year.By the way im not a teenager im 29 years old.

just to be safe, do hdd surface scan for bad sectors, those old things doesnt like when u drop them on floor
if u get fw bad sectors, its still fine, if it gets into hundreds, better back up it up and replace

If you have a decent sized aircooler, go ahead and clean it/repaste. More than a few pastes dry out over time and while that doesn't usually hurt anything (heat is transfered by the silicate's inside the paste, not the paste itself) if jarred decently, even a slight nudge cleaning a fan can break that seal and now the cooler can't do its job right.

If anything has gone wrong, you'll already know...🙁
Just as a precaution, and with the system powered down and the power cord removed: Check all the wiring connectors are still fully home, the memory modules are secure and any add in cards are still fully seated in their slots.
With the system running: Use something like HWinfo64 to check the system temperatures, it's possible, if unlikely, one of the heatsinks has been dislodged which will cause higher than average temperatures.

I have checked out the temps during live streaming,the temps were fine nothing did go above 50*C.Do i still have to remove the cpu cooler and clean it? its been 5-6 month since i did the cleaning.I have be quiet shadow rock TF2.

Everything seems fine,during live streaming nothing did go above 50*c.I just cant stop thinking if something will pop up in the future cause of dropped.Cpu fan was working on 600-700 rpm when i was gaming and live streaming gta online.
