Is it advisable to take the back panel and fan off to check the cards are seated correctly from the back? I'm worried of breaking the PCI-E or ethernet connectors ... and my panels simply do not slide out of the front like they should ...
I took the front and back panels of mine off before I powered it up the first time. Just make sure not to put too much pressure on the fan wiring.
My main board was unseated from the grooves in the case and three of the six cards were unseated....All 6 were out of the case grooves..
