Technically you can static shock anything. I have been zapped by a PSU before when I was sleeving cables as I forgot to discharge the PSU and the left over charge in the capacitors got me. No damage to the PSU though.

 

[Mirakledba]

Tinyvoices - Well the PSU WAS OFF, nothing plugged into it....I was wearing socks but All i did was carry it for 2 minutes showing it to my friend on skype. Could I have messed it up? I didnt touch the fan or any of the ports. Only the sides.

 

[tiny voices]

No, there is pretty much no chance you did anything. Even carrying RAM or a GPU or a motherboard like that would have been fine.

 

[Mirakledba]

Thanks! So, my brother still didnt ship the case....He was supposed to yesterday, im hoping he will today >_< He's in college so thats why he can get caught up with other things.

 

[Mirakledba]

Do any of you guys think I should have gotten an SSD? I mean, too late, Im happy with the H100i, but just curious, would an SSD had have been a better option?

 

[stickg1]

Well...

I think a bunch of us answered that question a while ago when we were showing you air coolers.

But you got the CPU cooler you really wanted so that's all that matters.

 

[Mirakledba]

Yeah thats true, Except the part of you guys saying get an SSD didnt cross my mind because I dont think that happened. Who cares. Im happy

And stick, you have a tendency to always make me look like an idiot Just kidding Well, I have to crash...did so much school work today its not even funny :S Dis homeschooling...

 

[tiny voices]

I would have had an SSD over an h100i for sure. A $75 air cooler will cool 95% as well, make less than half the noise and be a better value for money.

 

[Mirakledba]

Yes but I didnt have enough for both..I get an aircooler...30$ shipping. So it goes up to 105. I get an SSD, thats all, whatever. H100i is good.

 

[Mirakledba]

H100i shipped with DHL. Is DHL good?

 

[azzazel_99]

yea they are alright. Just another company like fed ex or ups.

 

[Mirakledba]

Ok Was just curious as I live here in the UAE and I know what DHL is but have never had them deliver.

 

[Mirakledba]

Guys, I dont think the PC cases will be coming any time soon...My case and My other brothers case cost 1200 dollars with fed ex air...gonna check if fed ex ground cheaper.

 

[Mirakledba]

my dad said we should return them, he gives me cash to buy one from here....?

 

[stickg1]

It cost me$60 just to send a little water block to the UK. So I would imagine a PC case would be crazy expensive. Just return them and buy one locally.

 

[Mirakledba]

SitckG1- I Would if my dad paid for it...I get my 90 back which is 330 dirhams an a 600t is 1000...No way i can do that..I want him to buy a diff case off amazon. Would be 260 but better than 600 and for my bro here 114 better than 600! I dont know man...I give up.

 

[stickg1]

You can't find a cheaper case?

 

[Mirakledba]

No

 

[Mirakledba]

There's nothing man. I lost hope. I dont know what to do...

 

[stickg1]

So the only case is your country is a 600T?

Uber.ae has nice cases for under 400...

 

[Mirakledba]

StickG1 - No, there are more cases like the CM storm

Ill have a look at that link

 

[Mirakledba]

any other UAE Sites with that stuff?

 

[Mirakledba]

I mean maybe My dad would chip in a bit if I dont have to pay for shipping

update: Eh forget it...I want my define R4..and I dont really like those cases

 

[stickg1]

Okay, so how are you gonna get it?

 

[Mirakledba]

No idea. I have to see what my dad says...He doesnt like talking about it because its like last priority to them....I guess Ill just ..I dont know man. No idea. I have no control over what happens...Think of it. 1200$???? I EVEN AGREE THATS TOO MUCH and i would MUCH RATHER order a 760T off amazon with shipping its 267...BETTER THAN 600! And my brother, he could order something and it will turn out total to be less than half of what we'd pay...but he says he wont add and that means I get 90$ Only...dude, shipping to here will cost 90....
