Hey guys, I recently broke one of my case's side glass panels. Im already getting a replacement but, should I be worried about the components? I mean it's tempered glass so it breaks and gets really small but should the components be ok? Should I be worried? 

PS if you're here to ask who and why would buy a glass case, just leave

Turn it on its side and give it a little shake/rolling movement to get any shards of glass out. Otherwise you should be fine!

Like said id turn the case on its side and give it a shake if any glass is in it its gone.Worse case a piece could kill a fan but anything else i doubt would do any damage.And pc parts are tougher then people think they are.Look at Linus he has dropped parts before and they still work prefect after that.
