is this safe ?

Hello,

So I am not familiar with holding pc parts XD. I'm new so don't judge my actions XD.

 

So. I bought a ryzen 5 3600x. It came today. And i opened it to make sure there isn't any bent pins and that it didn't get damaged during shipping. But when i finished lookin at it i didn't know how to put it down XD basically im scared that it will get damaged. It is still on its plastic thingy i only looked through the plastic didn't touch it. my question is. does it matter if i put it pins heading down or pins heading up ? It's still in its plastic thingy i didn't open it XD. ( By the way i am not trying to put it into a motherboard XD im tryna leave it there sitting for a few days till i get all of the parts )

 

Does it matter how i store it aslong as its in its plastic thingy ?

When storing it 

Put it in it's plastic container 

If you want to put it on a table make sure it's not conductive

When holding it hold it by the side avoiding the pins and the ihs

The way it came with shipping (on pins ) but be careful when putting it
