so i have the nzxt s340 case. when i first got it i hated the design hated how it was laid out but stuck with it. now i realize it has no optical drive. i have several games that are no longer sold anywhere at all. i refuse to pirate them. an optical drive is the ONLY WAY i can play them since either the dev team have gone bankrupt or just don't sell them anymore. i have everything ALREADY installed in it save for the hard drive and os and some cables. not only that but i can't seem to find several important cables like the ones for the bios so it makes the beeping noise. i did not find some of the cables with the packaging. everything that has happened when i put this build together all comes down to this crappy case that i HATE.
should i just take everything apart and reassemble it in my old case and just sell this one or return it and cut my losses? I AM NOT COMPROMISING ON AN OPTICAL DRIVE AND I DO NOT HAVE ROOM IN MY BUDGET FOR ANY MORE EXPENSES for an external optical drive. fyi reason i bought a new case was because the front jacks on my current one don't work properly.
also almost everything was from newegg save for the os and ram. this whole build feels like a gigantic waste of my money at this point.
also why the hell is this case so popular? seriously it has one the dumbest layouts i've ever seen.
sorry if i sound standoffish but i can already see what kind of replies im going to get concerning the optical drive that i should embrace downloadable games etc etc.
some of the stuff is past the 30 day return period so if this doesn't work out i'm screwed.
