What materials should be used to securely package a Gaming PC for delivery?
I look for common methods people use to shield both the exterior and interior of their tower cases, especially the glass side. They often rely on foam padding, which is typically sourced from original packaging. Since you can't afford instapak, alternatives like packing peanuts or bubble wrap are popular choices.
Yeah, you're going to have a hard time, but you learned a valuable lesson here - always keep the box and foam your case comes in.
Pull the GPU and pack it separately. Same thing with the heatsink on the CPU. It's that or instapak so they don't rip loose and destroy everything, and you said you aren't doing that. Then find a box that gives at least a couple inches of space around the case in all directions (including above and below it) and some closed cell foam... and pray, if you're in to that.
