| 497087 | 2006-11-07 05:06:00 | Im taking out all the hardware from my case and reassembling it for testing. What kind of surface should I lay my mobo on? | systm (9904) | ||

However the conductivity is low, as are the voltages on the motherboard so it probably causes no "issues", but I would opt for cardboard to be on the safe side. |
