I just took the faceplate off again and realised that it has the old silver sticker on it... MFR 02-22-08, 175W, BENQ...

Is something off here? Isn't it supposed to have the newer sticker???

Just an FYI, for the first time EVER i had SERIOUS trouble getting the flippin case off because the shell seemed to be a tiny bit warped in its shipped state... i mauled the two little tab vents a fair amount and i'm hoping that a little bit of filing can make it look a little more natural in case i ever need to return it hahaha ... doubtfull. Anyway, once i finally got the case to open i proceeded to flash it with instant success.. easy as pie! Done. However, upon screwing the case back onto the machine (6 torq screws) i became paranoid about how tight i should make them and if it would have any bearing on whether or not the system would eventually be prone to overheating... does it make any difference or not if some screws are a bit tighter than others? Does it warp the insides at all allowing heat to flow incorrectly? Totally paranoid i know but i thought i'd ask...
