Depends how paranoid you are. Really, you should check the GPG checksum
on a believed-to-be-good computer…

gpg --verify F12-Beta-x86_64-Live-CHECKSUM

The integrated disk check will guard against a corrupted download, but
not against a deliberately hacked download.

Then again, it’s probably easier for a programmer to get an “accidental”
vulnerability in a Fedora package than to hack the download. There was
an attempt to corrupt the Linux kernel’s BitKeeper repository, back when
it had one, that used “= 0” (make this variable zero) instead of “== 0”
(check if this variable is zero), which was supposed to have looked like
a careless programming error.
