Centurion 5 CAC-T05-UW - Part of it is bent

[The Pro]

Hello, This is my first computer build and i got all the parts i needed

MSI 975X Platinum Socket T (LGA 775) Intel 975X

COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 CAC-T05-UW

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600

CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800

XFX Geforce 7900GS 256MB 256-bit PCIE

Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi

DVD drive

WD 250GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s

SAMSUNG 204B-BK Black 20.1" 5ms LCD Monitor

PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 510-SLI ATX12V 510W

Other stuff is not important.

Anyways i started building it today and when i took the case out of the package the part up where the top sidepanel screw is next to the PSU opening was bent so i could not get the side panel off.

I will post pics when my camra's batterys finish recharging.

What should i do, im not in the mood for waiting 10 days and paying $20 to ship it back to newegg. But i will if i have to.

Hello and welcome to TPU

I don't think this will of much help... but can't you bend it back?

 

[The Pro]

I could try.
If i do will it void my warrintee or something.

 

[cdawall]

Send it back to newegg if you want it PERFECT. Otherwise DIY!

Looks like Bill Gates christmas list
Good choices take it nice and slow no short cuts and that will be one tight p/c. So what you gonna run win xp server 2003 dos with 3.11 att unix linux ?

 

[The Pro]

Windows XP home.
Ive decided to send it back only if newegg gives me overnight free shipping both ways.

 

[The Pro]

Wow that took a long time.

I have the new case now.

But I cant seem to get the I/O sheild off.

There is no visible screws and ive tryed to remove it by pushing on it but nothing works.

Any suggestions?, I did not get a instruction manual that was more then 1 page when I got the case

The instructions for the case are found here in the PDF format, so make sure you have Adobe Acrobat:

[bruins004]

Which way are you pushing it...
Also make sure nothing is blocking it like a piece of the fan?

 

[The Pro]

I'm pushing it into the case.

Nothing is blocking it.

 

[bruins004]

Just use a hammer or something and knock it out then

 

[The Pro]

Yep that worked. Thanks for the help.
