My computer from when I ordered it just the case and internals weighs around 100 lbs, I have since upgraded to a new radiator and cpu cooling block. I need tips for transporting it, I already got it down the stairs, is there any precautions I should take other than trying to not kill myself?

it may help if you tell us what computer case you have. because my computer has a big fan on the side of my computer case, so I always lift my computer from the other side
that's cool. I've got a Corsair Carbide 500R myself.
I always pick up my 500R up from the right side. I stand on the right side, put my hands on the front and back under the computer and lift, but I am quite strong so it's not that much of a problem. reason why I lift from the right side is so I won't break the big fan that's on the side.
if you have a box that's big enough you could try putting your 800D in there and fill it with things like crumbled newspapers and such and carry that. it doesn't make it easier, but your computer will be more safe
I have the 800d and custom water cooling setup myself. I bought a collapsible dolly that i tie it too with a pad behind it to prevent scratching. Just have to take it slow up stairs, i live on the third floor, so i understand the struggle of moving it.
