Possible to transport motherboard in a car with stock cooler and cpu attached?

Hey guys,

I'm selling my mobo/cpu/ram to upgrade my rig to DDR4, but my buyer doesn't have thermal paste if I clean it off and put the CPU back in its box correctly.

So I'm wondering if the parts will be safe in a car for 10-30 minutes, put in an anti-static bag (hopefully it fits well), hopefully sealed up nicely, and tucked in it's box and the box can just sit slightly open.

I know it's shady, but opinions would be great thanks

haha, you will be fine!, if there was a gpu i would say take that out, but i used to move a full tower atleast once a week without taking anything apart, just set it where the cooler is up and the motherboard is flat so it doesnt strain it

personally i'd take it in the case and remove it at the other end, mobo horizontal.

Alright cool thanks for the quick replies!

Don't think his gonna want a stranger following him to his house and his not the fastest at replying so I'll just have to do option 1.

Cheers again guys 😀
