Hello.

I am having a problem with my PC case (bitfenix Pandora) where it randomly vibrates and I kinda have to hit the side to stop it. It is really annoying when I am trying to game. Anyone know a solution?

Thanks

Might have to check your fans. It may just need a rubber washer to dampen the vibration.

I know that my intake fan does not spin when I start it up and sometimes needs manually spinning. It also spins alot slower than the outtake fan.

What do you meant by manually spinning? Like adjusting the RPM via software or physically turning the fan blade?

Also, check for the case itself. Maybe there's a panel that isn't tightly installed. I can see the case vibrating especially near a DVD player, HDD or a fan fully blasting.

I have to physically spin the fan. Also the case panel is a little loose but won't go in any further.

No DVD drive in it but a HDD on the top. Replacing the fans helped. Just going to take my portable HDD off the top. Thanks.

Have you set any custom fan curves within the BIOS?
