    Question Static Wrist Band While Assembling PC

    How about when assembling the motherboard components before installing it into the case? Would being clipped onto the case offer any protection while the motherboard is not touching it? I know it's not really a huge concern and I've built 2 PC's in the past without ever worrying about this but I...

    Random Shutdowns Every Few Minutes

    My PC randomly freezes and then completely shuts off for no noticeable reason every 5-20ish minutes. I'm not doing anything tasking either, I am just browsing on Chrome or looking at the Steam store. Sometimes I can use it for a while without it shutting off but usually, it will just freeze out...
