I Made LIQUID METAL for the Processor!

Do not repeat the experiments shown in this video!
Hi everyone! In this video I am going to show you how I made liquid metal for computer central processing units (CPU) and how I tested its thermal conductivity. In case you didn’t know, modern computers transfer heat from CPU to radiator through a layer of thermal interface material. Most frequently thermal grease is used as such a material.

do the thermal paste video, its going to be cool

Your assumption with regards to the soldered part of your CPU die is in fact correct. Chipmakers who solder their dies to the heat spreader generally use a very pure Indium solder. Also, the gold looking area where the solder is on the heat spreader is pure gold. It's an interface layer for the Indium to stick to as it won't adheer to the nickel plated copper. Great video!

Sellers of liquid metal: we have the cheapest prices!

that kitty and those pets was icing on the cake

Thank you sooo much. You are my favorite YouTuber and we love your accent please keep up the good work. Knowledge is not power.... Knowledge is love.

Just purchased some liquid metal for my pc...
I could have saved money if I had seen this video earlier.
Good job man

[marcussmart]

You never cease to amaze me. Thanks for being awesome and sharing your knowledge.

And I am falling in love to your tuxedo cat.
Cheers from Indonesia

Ok I am trying to do this,
Thank you for being such a good teacher

Man I love your content I been subbed for probably about 2 years or more and I'm always entertained by your content

I love this young fellow's voice and accent he even sounds like a real scientist

I've made this stuff in a toaster oven! It's fun, but it sticks to literally every surface to some extent or another. There was even a film of metal on the Teflon container I made it in, although it came off easily - but getting it off glass is a challenge, also fingers and walls.

Galinstan has a melting point of about 11 C, and Bi and Sb impurities don't affect it much. The company that owns the trade name and claims -19 C is capitalizing on the fact that it supercools really easily. It will not crystallize in a smooth container until it is well below 0 C, although if you add a crystal of frozen alloy, or just solid gallium, it will freeze almost immediately if it is below 11 C. Adding 1% zinc will reduce the melting point to about 8.5 C, but I don't think anyone's discovered anything that will reduce it further.

I kind of think thallium might work, but I'm too afraid to try. It would take a daredevil Russian with a thick accent to mess with such an alloy as Gathallinstan.

I live in florida, we don't even have chilly winter days. lol

Well please, do explore the thermal paste! Any video from you is very welcome xP

[himalayachaudhary]

great in-depth video...The best i have ever seen

[sirmeta]

That thermal grease video sounds like it would be really interesting to the greater pc crowd and would be super practical to more applications. Great video on galinstan none the less!

[giovannicusini]

Excuse me, where do you usually buy the reagent as Cesium, tin, platinum and etc. etc.?
Thanks for your time.

Hello: I love Ur channel

a 2 degree difference does not convince me to go through all that and maybe end up destroying my cpu while delidding it. But cool video.
