@Jorgen297: No, assuming you're talking about medical gloves (the white disposable kind), they are made of latex and can build up a static charge. Rubber dishwashing/utility gloves would be a better choice, but can also build up a charge, as they are not designed with electronic protection in mind.
To be honest, simply making sure to never touch one of the gold pathways/components on a RAM module is safe enough. Even if you do, it doesn't mean insta-death, there's just a chance of discharging

@liamsp544 @liamsp544 Is it OK to use plastic gloves when setting in ram? Alot cheaper than a ground strap.

does the lga on the core processor have to match the lga on the motherboard?

To be honest guy's ground straps are unnecessary unless you're doing work for someone else, and just want the extra reassurance.
As long as you don't touch the pins, and the CPU has a metal heat spreader on the top (like this one), there is no way you're going to shock it.
Handling RAM you should be a little more careful, since ram is a lot more sensitive to ESD and has less obvious places to hold it. Try to only hold RAM by the vertical edges.

@lavitz1125 If you can fry a CPU through the heat spreader using only the static charge built up in your body, I will seriously give you a thousand dollars.
