Touching a running motherboard

Sometimes you want to feel how hot those components are, I.e. vrm USB ports, ram, pointy headers, etc

or run your fingers along the whole motherboard and graphics cards to feel those sophisticated electronic circuits.

 

Should I close my eyes while touching them?

Hand, n. A singular instrument worn at the end of the human arm and commonly thrust into somebody’s pocket.
