I've already got a parts list assembled and ready to be put together once I have the money together, the main thing I'm wanting advice on is a good magnetic-tipped screwdriver or set, I don't really have any good one's so I thought to seek a bit of advice here and go from there, thanks in advance

I recommend the iFixit kits, I have a few. My favorite one for PC work is the biggest one, that comes with 2 screwdrivers one big one small. https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Manta-Driver-Kit--112-Bit-Driver-Kit/IF145-392 

 

Also if you don’t wanna spend as much on a kit this one is the more essential bits for electronic stuff, doesn’t come with the big screwdriver handle or as many bits but it DOES come with everything you’ll need to build a PC. https://www.ifixit.com/products/mako-driver-kit-64-precision-bits

 

You could also get the Pro Tech Toolkit but that’s more geared to smartphones etc although it does come with a nice anti static strap and a bunch of tweezers and prying tools along with the mako kit, all in its own tool roll. https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Pro-Tech-Toolkit/IF145-307 

 

I fix my own devices so I do have the Pro Tech Toolkit as well as the Manta kit.

The magnetism on all their kits is really strong, they’re the nicest screwdriver kits I’ve ever used for electronic stuff. All of it is ESD-safe too, even the tweezers n stuff, and the lid doubles as a tray for screws and small parts. 

 

Here’s the bulk of my ifixit stuff, I also have the Opening Kit with a bunch of extra spudgers but that’s at home.

no, for the fact this will be one of very few things I'd prefer a magnetic tipped screwdriver, there is no point in me spending the money on the LTT screwdriver, at the time I of posting that I hadn't really watched LTT at all, I didn't even know about the thing until after I had already put of the original post
