[SOLVED] Side panel water build up???

[ToastDisaster]

There seems to be water building up in the tempered glass side panel of my case, is this bad? Idk how long it has been there, what could cause this? Can humidity cause this? It has been raining a lot recently and the air felt abnormally cold.

Sounds like there is a lot of moisture in the air. It can short your PC or damage other parts, specially if it leaks/sips inside the case...
"Condensation forms when there is a big change in temperature. Humidity in the air starts to condense onto computer surfaces. This can cause short circuiting that will ruin the computer. "

Make sure you clean it and dry up everything properly. Keep a check on it for some time until the weather changes.

Leave the pc on in sleep mode. You have high humidity/low temp room and the pc runs warm. Shutting it down, it's getting cold again and that's allowing condensation buildup on the glass. Leaving the pc active keeps the fans running and the warmer air acts like a defroster in your car. Condensation on the outside is harmless, condensation on the inside is harmful.
