So quick question I have alway built my pcs inside the house, so I was wondering if it would be ok if I built my new pc outside like in a garage? If it's a bad idea please tell me.

Dust and dirt are factors, but if you don't care about those in your case, it's not a big deal.  Just make sure nothing gets in the cpu socket
