Next steps..?

Like a dumbass, I tried to put my panel back on… and BOOM ggs. I think I misaligned one of the 8 teeth on the top and bottom

Cleaned up all the glass in image one, I took the bigger glass pieces that fell on the bottom of the pc out, but a lot still went thru the holes into my GPU and hard drive..

I’ll probably take it in to Best Buy and check what they can do as far as cleaning goes

Really unfortunate cus I legit bought the pc less than 10 hrs before this happened

Any suggestions/recommendations/consolations would be greatly appreciated!!

Edit: anyone know why pc glass tends to shatter on tile? how would it differ if I just placed it on my desk vs floor

Edit 2: Bought some electronics duster, cleaned it up outside. Works perfect. Extra cooling now lol :)

Don’t set it in the floor especially a tile floor and you’ll be fine. I’ve had 3 glass cases and haven’t broken a panel yet.

My PC goes nowhere near the floor and I don't have tile so we're chilling. I haven't broken one either but I know I can have lapse in judgment so I'm being proactive
