I'm a first-time PC builder, and I just received my new PC case. Unfortunately, the delivery man left it in the backyard during a heavy rain for about an hour. After I unboxed it, I noticed a few small water spots on the case where moisture managed to seep through the packaging. Am I overreacting, or should I consider returning it? What should I check before proceeding with my build?

As long as the case is clean, dry, and free from any damage before you add your components, you should be just fine!
Don't stress too much—it's just a case! Wipe it down, and you should be good to go.
You’re probably panicking for no good reason. Just check for any obvious water damage or moisture inside the case. If everything looks dry, you’re definitely safe! Let it sit open for a day or two to fully dry out if you want to be cautious.
Thanks for the reassurance! I’ll let it air out just to be safe.
