ok seems straight forward, one question though, how do i ground myself :/

i know it means discharging any static but how i actually do this

people say touch the inside of the case, but where abouts?

When you've opened up the case just touch one of the metal edges. Do not touch the mobo or any components until you've touched a metal edge on the case.

I just take an air compressor to mine. I know everyone says it's a bad idea but its easy, works well and no problems so far :good:

if you dont have a air compressor, you can buy compressed air in a can.
