I built my computer on ceramic tiles, is that okay?

Question

I know that you shouldn't build it on carpet because it collects static electricity, so i went and decided to build the entire PC in my bathroom, (because it has a tap which i can ground myself with) but i'm not sure whether ceramic is okay or not ...please answer, I'm really worried :(

Answer 1

So, did you get it wet?

If not, it should be fine.

Even in carpeted rooms the great majority of computers are ok. Static is a small risk, not a guaranteed problem.

Once all the parts are in the case, and you are no longer touching inside, it is fine. Go put it up on a table and start it up.

Ceramics are excellent insulators - all the insulators on high-tension power lines are made from it.
