I have bought hyper 212 EVO on Jan,2012 for 2000/-

After a year during a general cleaning of my PC i noticed that the four spring screws of the X CLAMP have caught RUST. One of the screws with backplate nut has become so stubborn and stained that i was unable to open it.

It was only in the last month that again during cleaning process i dipped that rusted one in coconut oil for hours and while tried to open it with Cutting pliers it has just broke and got apart with the broken piece inside the nut.

i think it carries 1 yr warranty only. Again this is a physical damage happend unintentionally due to bad alloy of the component.
