Unless you have an antistatic mat to place the components on, don't do it.

like @Archangel1994 said, you need an antistatic platform to put your board(I think you can also use a rubber mat or the mobo box). It's up to you though, you can game without a case(that's what I'll do for a month before I can have my case) but make sure the platform will be static-free.

Only if you have something non-conductive to put it on.. like a wood desk

 

I actually ran my minecraft server without a case on my desk

You should always test a system out of the box before you put it in a case so that if anything is DOA it's easy to diagnose and repair

Temperatures aren't a problem, but I'd be worried about you knocking into it. 

Your call though, if it's on top of your mobo box and you won't physically hit it, I think it'll be fine.

(Also watch your HDD, make sure it's flat and secure)

i have an ssd and an external hdd so its connected by usb wont be a problem. 

so i should do it regardless, maybe not play games, just test to see if it works

yeps!

Playing games for a bit is fine, but install it in a case asap!

Use the mobo box or any box you got from recent stuff you bought that is big enough.

Or just ghetto it and glue it all to the wall cases are to mainstream and overrated
