Well I have just about had it with my case and backplate for my noctua nh-u12p. So i was thinking of getting a dremel and cutting a square out right were the back-plate is in the motherboard tray and maybe a few cable management holes. My question is will the case fail on me? like collapse or bend? Thanks in advance

I don't completely understand what your asking but I can tell you this. A few holes here and there will not make your chassis collapse. just take a quick peek into my sig'd Black N Blue Baby link and you will see some cutting I did. I hope this helps.
Good Luck, N2G

I wrote out a long explain concerning structural rigidity and angular support when I just realized you weren't actually cutting out the entire motherboard tray, but just a few small portions of it. Answer: Yes, it'll be fine. As long as you don't decide to stand onto of the case.

As the others have stated, you'll be fine. I cut cable management holes and a hole for a backplate in my A300 and it is still just as sturdy as it always has been.
