is it dangerous to run a computer not in a case? i have a wood table covered in venyl (sp?) and would it be safe to just lay the motherboard on there and use it?
 
yep i wouldnt do it for long tho. cause lots more dust could get to it. why would you want to run it on a table? w/o a case
 
well my case will be here in a week, and i dont have a case yet. and im switching mobo's so i need to pull some data off on this one before i switch them with the new case.

so its safe? i realize i asked is it dangerous and is it safe lol so yep could mean either
 
i wouldn't leave it on the vinyl bc of hotspots that could melt or warp the plastic, but a wooden table is fine
 
hmm didnt think of melting vynl. that woulldnt be good. but if you absolutely had to then yes it's safe. but not recomended
 
I ran mine inside my motherboard box for awhile while troubleshooting it. I definitely wouldn't set it directly on vinyl as there will be hotspots as others have said.
