Will I, FruitBasketSilex, get the shit shocked out of me, if I decide to tear off the side panel of my 300R and touch a clearly electrically active part of my Z97 Gaming 7? What about If I lick my finger first?

Why? Unless you manage to stick your finger into the PSU the worst you'll get is 12V.

 

Exactly how bad is 12v, and the amperage matters too.

I added an actual answer, child.

And I posted an actual response to that actual answer, my young padawan.

The amperage matters too but is under no circumstances enough to harm you. You'll get a little zap and that's about it. Worse is that if you get zapped, you've probably shorted something out and managed to permanently harm your computer.

True (sort of), a Van da Graff generator will hurt a lot more than 12 volts at 1 amp. But my question is, WHY????

“When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”

yup, can't say you within a standard deviation of norm with you question and follow up post, good luck getting it unstuck, happens to the best of us. 

 

Don't worry. I've gotten it stuck in there before. A Wrench usually gets it out.
