Don't turn your PC parts into dust group yourself before dealing with Your PC parts from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

Good Air Flow
Parts which are cooled well will perform well and even have a good life expectancy.

PC parts are sensitive and can get damaged easily, so if any part is not getting into place check it twice and if it still creating problem then maybe that is not compatible with the other part.

If its not working, HIT IT WITH A FU**ING HAMMER, i remember when i saw a meme with that, i nearly had incapacitated myself. Honestly for building pcs i think its best to watch a video, someone like carey holzman, shows you everything , may take an hour but its better to be prepared.

If you think your going to break something or something isn't right there's no shame in reading the manual or looking up a youtube video.

6Th one, PC's without RAM ftw ^_^.

 

Tbh, I don't get why people are like you must be grounded. It can damage your PC but that's just if you handle the parts inappropriately and even then I've made a few mistakes before and I'm yet to damage a part due to electro static.

 

@ Don't push your PC too hard. People's definition of pushing it too hard vary and I'd personally say it's ok to push it hard as long as your not reckless. Some parts are meant to be pushed hard and most can handle a lot.

regarding the last one, sometimes a little bit of force is required

"I've been mad for fucking years, absolutely years, I've been over the edge for yonks..."

"I've always been mad, I know I've been mad, like the most of us are...very hard to explain why you're mad, even if you're not mad..."

"There is no dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact it's all dark."

Nice, but you should elaborate just a little further.

Humpty Dumpty was pushed.

Let me fix this for you:

Shorter answer, ask on LTT forums instead.

Manual is for noobs - Linus
