it is not needed if you are careful, get it if you can, but if not then make sure that when you build your pc you dont put it on or stand on carpet, dont have pets around, and touch a grounded piece of metal before installing each part.

I like to add don't wear sweater and any wool like clothing since they can easily create static electricity. Also, chassis is made out of metal so by touching them will ground yourself
