CoolerMaster Haf X Side Panel, Is this normal?

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Hello,

This is a small problem i have been encountering for such a while, And i kinda find it anoying,

My side panel window of my HafX has like a Rainbow effect when you look at it?
Is this normal or?

Here some pictures:

When my monitor is on:

Monitor off: (When its off you can still see it in real slightly, But on this picture you cant)

When you look straight on it (90 degrees) it is completely gone, But ye, Who has his PC 90 degrees in front of him? tongue.gif

I also wanted to ask if the side panel of haf 932 would also have this problem? Else i was thinking to maybe buy that one since the window is alot more nice since it shows all parts of your PC.

Thanks for your time and help smile.gif

Best regards,
DrLuigi.

to me it just looks like the type of acrylic they used for the panel. I personally see no issues with it.

Btw if someone else has a haf product and does not have this problem please say,
Due i guess all haf cases should have the same window material.

Contacted Coolermaster,
They told me its due that the glass isnt straight,

I asked em afterwards if the Haf 932 would be better in that point due the rectangle window should be more straight then the hafX
and they confirmed that, that one should have almost none reflections,
Well i will think about it, might buy it, idk yet smile.gif

Thanks for your time to help me though smile.gif
