    I just received my UX32VD today and I noticed that the bottom part of the case sticks out a bit on the right side under the 2 usb ports and when I apply light pressure it flexs and makes a light noise. Does any one else experience this problem??

    Also there is back light bleeding on the bottom going up to the right side and the fan issue that everyone is aware of...

    If all the screws are tight, it shouldn't make any noise.

    Actually it will because the bottom part is made out of plastic and is flexible. What happens is when you apply pressure on this spot it will flex the bottom cover past the side and will create that light clicking noise. No the clicking noise is not defective however if you are referring to the back light bleeding then yes it is. Regarding about the fan issue have you tried updating the bios to see if that resolves your issue. Return the unit for another and see if the back light bleeding is better.

    My bottom cover is already "past the side," if I think I know what you mean. It is not "past the side" only when a screw is loose. Then it does, in fact, make a clicking noise.
