So I recently bought a Storm Trooper case, and have it sitting next to me now, eager to be used.
However, upon looking in to my computer, it's all daunting. I had my mate build it for me about 2 years ago, and assumed it wouldn't be hard to change cases.
I went ahead and bought myself an anti static wrist strap, but heard that the computer needs to be plugged into the mains constantly to earth you? My Mobo is located behind the PSU, so I'd need to remove the PSU to remove the Mobo. I'm scared of damaging it.
Further more, I'm scared of forgetting where all the cables go, the Mobo is labelled to some extent (Sata II, Audio, etc) but is there an easier way to know.
Can I also remove the Mobo with CPU and Heatsink attached, or do I have to remove them? I don't want to detach the Heatsink from the CPU as I don't have spare Thermal Paste.
How fragile are components? I'm scared to even tug a little in fear of snapping, or damaging them.
Any advice?
