This applies to all computer components.
Have you personally ever fried something in your computer by stactic electricty? my mom gets freaked out when ever i have a component out of my case and its not in a anti stactic bag. Dosent the electricty have to have some way to ground? so if i am holding lets say a video card and rubbing my feet around on the carpet i cant fry it because the stactic has no way to get to a ground. Even with a mobo in a case if you touch it and somehow it does shock it wont it go to the ground wire?
so please correct me if i am wrong and tell me of any your experences with stactic shock.
thanks
