It is more likely to be a problem with your PSU or MB than a grounding problem...
I have never experienced immediate shut downs due to grounding problems with the case, especially with missing standoffs.
I've just found out that his case was first listed for $169 :eek:

Here are some pics of the modification I've done since my last post.
I've replaced the stock paste of the H70 with some Arctic Silver 5 and moved the radiator on top of the case as an outtake. Result; 10c drop :eek:
I've also replace the stock H70 fan with a Xigmatek 120mm silent fan...
I removed both 200mm fans, they were too noisy!
I replaced the front intake fan with a super quite 140mm fan that fits perfectly through the front grill holes. I don't think I will need top exhaust fans as the temps are really good so far; CPU idles at 37c an loads at 56c (2600k).
Hello everyone!!!
Here is my new baby 650D :D
As you can see, I don't have issues with the 200mm fans; I just removed them and replaced the intake fan with a super silent 140mm (fitted perfectly in the front grill holes)
The system is silent and the temps are cool...
