Tip: LISTEN TO LINUS!

     Ima make this simple and to the point. We all listen to Linus and his tips on building computers, but some overlook a very important factor... magnetic parts treys. Most people just see it as, "Oh, Linus. You're rambling again.", but DON'T SAY THAT AND LISTEN TO THE MAN!

     I made this mistake myself when I built my first PC, I did not buy a magnetic parts trey and 3 of the 4 screws for my PSU were lost before you can even think of referencing South Park in this one, and say, "AAAAND IT'S GOOOONE!". So please trust me, and listen to Linus.

 

PS: I ment for this post to be somewhat funny, even if my humor is not present like Donald Trump's brain. Although all of this is true. PLEASE BUY THAT MAGNETIC PARTS TREY! YOU WILL BE HAPPY AND THANKFULL FOR THAT GODLY PEICE OF LIFE SAVING MATERIAL!

or just get an ordinary bowl. I used to build LEGO sets on a dinner plate, so I wouldn't lose any LEGO pieces

I think it is just a matter of where you build a PC if you don't have a bowl, magnetic parts trey ect.
