Getting my new build!

Recently (Last night from posting) I ordered all of my PC parts!

I have yet to receive any of them, but they should be arriving this weekend into next week.

I wanted to know if there was anything I am missing when I set it up.

I have an antistatic wristband. Furthermore, I have a clean open space to build it on.

Is there anything I'm missing in the assembly process 

(I have an ifixit kit with all the bits I need.)

Do note the GTX 770 is temporary and I'm only going to use until I can get my hands on a 3060ti

I'd recommend before putting it in the case to put it together and see if it boots, but then if it does boot you can go on to put it into the case.

Thanks for the advice I'm was already going to do this just didn't think about doing it when I wrote the post. I should first assemble it on the MOBO box with the antistatic bag the mobo comes in under it I think.

Yeah that works, hopefully none of your components are DOA.

Gosh DOA stuff drive me nuts. I ordered it all from amazon and they have free returns if an item IS DOA. The GPU is from eBay and the listing says fully functional, so if its not I can get a refund. Fingers crossed!!

I was actually considering getting that gpu! I then realized it couldn't really run a lot of my games (No offense) and decided to spring for an older card but a card that can run most 1080p games at decent FPS (Minecraft-over 100)
