Just Bought This?

So I just purchased this spec. Is this going to last me awhile? Is it decent enough for the price tag? Also I've since received it and I've noticed the microphone jack port doesn't seem to fit the chassis, and the LED lights on the space bar aren't illuminated all the way across. Is that normal? Same with some faded lettering on the keyboard.

Hi.
Bought exactly the same model as yours, not yet delivered.
I was undecided between the defiance and vyper. Basically same price but vyper was way more powerful (RTX 2070 Super in it)
Can I ask you why did you opt for the defiance? Did you consider the vyper chassis?

I just clicked on the price range I was comfortable with is all. Though now I'm not sure especially cause there seem to be defects. But I'm hitting a brick wall with customer support. They take so long to reply and then never answer my question so I'm running out of time to decide if I wanna return it or not.

Received my new Defiance VII a couple of days ago.
As far as I can see, I can tell you that:
- keyboard letters are not faded (at least not yet...)
- mic jack is OK, no problem fitting with the chassis
- space bar is like yours, not fully lighted (I'd say it's by design, not an issue)
