where to build a computer

[adzygamer15]

is it okay to build a computer on a towel? i know your not meant to on carpet but does it make a difference? 

 

at the worst, could i build on a big mat on carpet?

Do you have a wooden table or something like that?

Uhh...I'd rather not.

 

Don't you have a table? Tile floor?

i have a wooden table but my parents don't want the case just on it, would a towel on the table be okay?

Furry materials, wool, etc are a nono as they could cause you to build up static electricity and zap your components to death.

Modern hardware is pretty resistant to this....but, call me overly cautious but I'd rather not accidentally kill my expensive components when it could've been easily avoided.

 

 

Besides, how would the case mark the floor?

hmmm so you would not put heavy PC on carpet coz carpet mark?

your question is where to place the completed build or where to start building??

it take half a day at most for most first time builders, wont leave any marks.

If you mean where to place pc, may be under your montior? desk? on wall

building on a carpet or towel is a bad idea because of potential for static electricity. Maybe cut up some cardboard and build on top of that on your table. @adzygamer15

hey guys, it took me a few hours to build it and i just did it on the table. just risked them killing me . build is working well just cable management isn't 100% but it won't be visible so all good. thanks all
