What if the PC is not well grounded/earthed..

I had lost my mercury 810e board back in 2000 due to bad earthing

BTW,what about laptops !I hope dc will not kill you!

You said it
Those old processors were slower and less prone to power problems unlike the latest fast processors. Try using a new rig without earthing, you won't get very far, I assure you.

The rig in my sig had no earthing for a couple of months as my home's earthing was borked. Its now fixed though. Again no issues other than a few little shocks here and there.

Lack of earthing can't kill a machine as beyond the power supply, there is no AC anyway. At most the PSU can get die assuming the PSU has proper output filtering.

Hey there not always disadvantages for "not" having earthing!
U can enjoy someone gets shock while u sits in the corner!

Just Kidding! But one should always consider it for happy and long life of your hardware!
