I'm about to build a new PC.
I've read that you can connect the alligator clip (anti static wrist wrap) to the computer case or the psu. Since this is a new PC, nothing will be inside the case or connected to the PSU.
Assuming my power outlet (wall) is grounded, do I just have to plug the PSU into the power oulet, make sure its off and connect the alligator clip on the PSU metal while working on the motherboard?
I'm asking this because the motherboard won't be connected to the PSU or be inside the case when I install cpu cooler, etc.
Another question: I have AX860 corsair PSU.

As you can see, it's painted black, where can I connect the alligator clip?
Thanks in advance.
