Hey everyone! I'm in the process of building my own PC, but I'm concerned about sweaty hands during the build. I ordered an anti-static glove, but it's not here yet. In the meantime, can I use those white surgical gloves? Are they okay for working on PC components? Thanks in advance for your help!

Honestly, you might be overthinking it. Just wash your hands and dive in. I doubt you're sweating enough to really harm the parts! 😂
That’s a fair point! Maybe gloves are a good idea after all.
Yeah, surgical gloves should be just fine for building your PC. They’ll protect your components and keep your hands dry. Good choice!
I sometimes use these black nitrile gloves when I build. They’re super durable and don’t tear easily. Plus, they help avoid fingerprints on the parts. They're a great option!
A drop of sweat could potentially short something out though, so it’s better to be safe!
