Technically 2nd time. But the first time was 90% my friend helping me do it. I'll be following a Linus Tech Tips how to video. Perhaps anti-static wasn't the right choice of words. It was whatever the heck LTT said to get. I'll check it when I get home. 

You don't need an anti-static strap, just maintain a hand connection to the case so you are grounded.

The instant he said "graphics care". People that are too stupid/careless to use proper grammar are too stupid/careless to build a PC. Also, adhesive? Glue + Heat + Electricity does not mix. I could have told you that fifteen years ago when I knew jack squat about building a PC. 

BTW I have no idea how to hook up my SSD to my board. And I have no idea how to mount my board to my case. I'll be watching videos and googling it in the week before my parts arrive. Any tips on that? 

Take it slowly.
If it's an nvme drive (I didn't check your components), it's just like installing Ram.

It is! That makes it easy then. Do NVME drives have their own PSU cable, or do they just get their power through the motherboard, like RAM sticks?

Now I'm just wondering how to figure out where to put the mounting brackets for the motherboard. Guess I'll read the case/motherboard manuals when they arrive.
