I’m in the process of building a PC and will be moving states next month. Ideally, I’d like to at least get it built and booted up before moving, because I’m moving to a more rural area without easy access to a MicroCenter or other store that sells components. It’ll be a ~700 mile drive, the second half of which will be through smaller mountain roads. What is the best way to do this, so I can avoid damaging any components?
Keep the box for your case and for your GPU. Pack those two items in their boxes. RAM/PSU/etc should be fine being stuck on the motherboard in the case. If you got a mechanical HDD, might be worth taking that out as well. And like someone else said, anything heavy should come out of the case. Be smart about the placement in the truck as well, put clothes/blankets/pillows under and around the case.
