    The carpet does nothing to the parts, unless your doing the god damn truffle shuffle you won’t build up enough charge.

    Even if you did you wouldn’t kill your parts

    The only thing about this that is actually potentially bad, is the CPU cooler.

  3. Belaboy109569

    i think the more unsettling thing is the cpu and gpu combo. who uses an amd gpu with an intel cpu??

  4. MailConsistent1344

    Why did he take them out of the box and lay them out like that? Lmao. Dust with a side of PC parts please.

    I’m not the one to care that much about static electricity but damn…

    Make sure he has an ethernet cable, the amount of times I’ve needed to install a driver to use wifi with out bring able to use wifi without the driver is just crazy lol

    Static eletricity aside, this seems like a fairly balanced build that gets the most performance possible for the money 🙂

    They’re excited and chances of harm are about zero. Give ‘em a pass and stop shaming your friend

    Carpet, the perfect spot for sensitive electronics

  11. FoxiDaFluffyFemboy

  12. Nice__Nice

  13. Noshameinhoegame

    Ive built most of my computers , even old xp builds sat on the carpet, and for the older ones thats after throwing the parts thru the dishwasher. hes fine

  14. *sigh*

    There’s the wifi card again. Do you people refuse stable internet?

  15. CoyoteFit7355

    Putting electronics on carpet… WHY?!

  16. TroubleSafe9087

    I appreciate the $100 wine voucher as part of the build

  17. whoisgare

    This picture makes me uneasy and i don’t really understand why

  18. Ahhhh, right on the carpet. No static there.

  19. Hedhunta

  20. TheRedHand66

  21. Material-Junket214

    To really took out all the paper work aswell

  22. RickySpanish797

    My first mobo was fried like this lol

  23. UltimateToa

    I’ve built every PC I have owned on carpet

  24. Lorunification

    I wonder when we, as a community, stop being so over-sensitive with pc parts.

    Not a single part will take any damage here. Not in theory, not in practice. Not if actively rubbed against the carpet. And surely not by accident.

    It just doesn’t happen.

    I imagine they also use Tesla Coils as room lights.

  26. garbag3patchkid

    Make sure he gets plenty of carpet all over everything.

  27. Raw hardware on the carpet 🫠🫠🫠 Why????

  28. DirectionRich9113

    Umm you should never put components on carpet. You risk ESD and can fry components before even getting a chance to use them. Invest in an esd mat and keep components in boxes until you’re ready to put them together.

  29. whiskeywalk

    Put the bare components on the carpet. That’s a good idea.

  30. CopiumCatboy

    Please read into ESD safety and do not let GPUs lay on the not ESD floor.

  31. BaconPersuasion

    Make sure he exposes those components to more static just in case.

  32. tru3robin

    Sick the carpet probably connected everything already
