I just got my Nzxt phantom less than an hour ago in the mail and im having a bit of trouble with the side panels they fit but they are a little difficult to get lined up and im wondering if it is usually this troubling or am is it damaged? nothing else has any damage but im having a bit of trouble with the side panels. thanks for your help

Okay, for my phantom i found that you need to lever the right side in then push it in, NOT slide.

Don't slide it or you may bend the corners making it extremely difficult to operate.

Also, i found that the 2 fans on the side panel are quite unreliable. Both of mine have a broken blade.

I think your referring to the phantom 410 just going off your avatar pic but ye the side panels are stiff for me as well and the right side panel is a pain to get on.
nope the original phantom i just like the color scheme of the 410

I'm not sure about the phantom, but I had the same problem with my Switch 810, and its by the company. I actually had to pry with pliers the panels a little.
mine isnt that bad but i do have to muscle it off
