I applied the isolating tape for simplicity since traces are exposed. (In your situation they aren't.) It’s similar to having two or more unisolated DC wires near each other. A single strand can easily cause a short circuit and damage the component. If your PC is dusty, wear and tear will happen quickly. I cleaned my PCB with isopropyl before taping and even wore gloves.

Hey there!!!! Great job on getting your day back on track! 😄 I totally get how nervous you were. Just a quick note: since you didn’t build your PC yourself, the store staff probably handled it for you.

About those rubber washers – yeah, they’re often used to prevent scratches and ensure proper fit. If you’re curious, it’s not strictly necessary, but they can help protect surfaces. Just check if your specific part needs one!

No need for robber washers. They probably hit it using a screwdriver during the CPU cooler installation.

It's located next to the cooler. Then it was a pair of things that shouldn't be an issue—it's gigabyte after all. Thanks, enjoy your weekend!

It was only the GPU backplate that tricked me, but everything is fine now. Asus makes excellent quality products!

Hey! The PC is running smoothly. I’ve noticed a small flicker—like a shutter or a brief glitch—when playing games such as Valorant or RDR2. It lasts only a moment. What could be causing it? I’m curious to know!
