Correction: Dont place your tempered glass case on the floor, but rather on the desk or somewhere else, where its elevated.

I always see posts showing the broken glass. I never see posts explaining how the glass got broken.

Stone floor and glass is a stupid idea – even for non-tempered glass. And also not great for acoustics either.

Tiles? Never buy a home with tile floors. Or never buy a case with tile floors because houses are just human cases lol.
Well now you know why PC on the ground is a bad idea if you have tile floors.

Correction. Do research before placing your tempered glass near tile.

So does the glass fall to the floor or does this happen when it’s mounted to the case? Still don’t get how this is happening so often.

Broken tempered glass and tile floor, name a more iconic duo

I got a free xl gaming mouse pad (the soft kind) that I used as a mini computer carpet when mine had to be on the floor.
Just a tip for anyone who might need their setups on ground level!

I’ve had tempered glass for 12 or so years and 5 moves, not a single break. What are you guys doing?

Noticing a pattern here. One man post a broken glass, another one gets cursed by it.
What kind of unholy curse y’all been passing around here?

Tempered glass cases for 8 years now, not a single one broken, even tho I bumped my wheels off my chair into it multiple times… It’s possible. Source: trust me bro

Ive owned multiple cases with tempered glass and this hasn’t happened, looks like user error
Am stupid, what exactly causes the glass to crack?

I work with glass for a living and you guys must be doing something really wrong with your computers to do this.
I manhandle my side panel, let it out on weekends and late nights, never explodes.

Man what is wrong with you guys? There are PC desks where you can place the PC AWAY FROM THE GROUND. I’m starting to think these ppl do it on purpose lmao

Like it’s even possible to do nowadays. Every case shoves down a tempered glass sidepanel down your gullet, unless you’re willing to buy landfill.

I’ve had my case with tempered glass side panels for years now without incident.
All it takes are SOFT surfaces to put them on to be cleaned, and an occasional scroll through this sub to remember what to never do.
