You don’t need to wear gloves while building a PC. I’ve built one with the case laying on carpet and laying the bare mobo on carpet. Never had a single issue with static. Just touch the PSU and you’re good.

I did read the thread, thank you very much. What I'm saying is that static electricity isn't as big of a deal as people make it out to be.
