1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,440
you ever see those videos with thermal goop all over the CPU socket or people

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:11,360
jamming things into high-powered fans and thought hm what would happen if I

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:15,559
did that to my PC well that's bad first of all you could get hurt or worse you

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:19,279
could damage your computer so instead of risking it let us indulge your intrusive

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,199
thoughts like what would happen if you used your monitor in the Arctic can

6
00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:28,920
liquid crystals freeze we're about to try all of this and more but my friends

7
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:37,280
heed this warning do not try this at home instead try this segue to our

8
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:39,160
sponsor Ridge okay drop everything our

9
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:43,960
LTT circuit board Ridge wallet collaboration is live designed by our

10
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:48,640
very own Sarah but it is sure to stand out and hold up too thanks to ridge's

11
00:00:46,559 --> 00:00:53,600
meticulous focus on quality grab one today using our Link in the video

12
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,600
description

13
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:08,360
in theory modern highquality pastes are

14
00:01:04,199 --> 00:01:11,720
both non-conductive and non-capacitive

15
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:13,680
so this might work okay but even if it's

16
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:19,240
non-conductive wouldn't that block the pads from touching my theory is that the

17
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:21,119
mounting pressure is going to be so high

18
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:24,159
that it's going to kind of mash it out kind of like when you mount a heat sink

19
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:29,320
and it's not mashing out as much as I might have hoped but there's a lot of

20
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:33,600
mounting pressure on the CPU and these are older larger pins uh and guys this

21
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:37,600
was already a motherboard that was a little bit flaky don't worry we want to

22
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:40,640
sacrifice something that works perfectly Works enough to find out if it

23
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:46,280
works though shut up no

24
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:50,759
way clearly we haven't put enough thermal paste in

25
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:55,119
oh for round two we're bringing out the big guns all right that should be enough

26
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:59,280
that she's going to squeeze out like toothpaste or peanut butter

27
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:10,760
no this is crazy oh boy okay I think this is our

28
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:15,680
final stage here our ratio of thermal paste under

29
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:20,239
the CPU to thermal paste on top of the CPU is extremely

30
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:24,000
high so we should probably get some more paste on top yeah that's good that's

31
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:29,160
good you know you've always wanted to try it no what if we run something like

32
00:02:27,319 --> 00:02:35,879
actually CPU intensive like cinn bench or something sure I can do that 62° on

33
00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:39,480
the CPU she's flying how is this allowed I don't know but it's great because we

34
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:43,720
kind of need this system for our next intrusive thought inside this

35
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:49,280
environmental chamber is a liquid crystal display but just because they're

36
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:53,959
liquid at room temperature doesn't mean that they are always liquid they can

37
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:59,920
freeze what is the rated temperature of this monitor it doesn't say but most are

38
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,800
rated to 0° while in operation andus 20

39
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:07,959
while in storage so that seems like a sensible starting point this is so gross

40
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:13,000
it feels worse than even just the motion blur like it almost feels like it leaves

41
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:16,599
an imprint of the starting frame on my eye before anything even starts moving

42
00:03:14,879 --> 00:03:20,959
at all it it's like you're permanently recovering from a flashbang yeah it's

43
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:26,440
like that exact effect it reminds me of a flashbang where it leaves that previous

44
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:30,599
image imprinted that's what I was looking for my question now is what

45
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:34,360
happens if we goow lower there's no water in the display so we don't need to

46
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:40,239
worry about the liquid expanding as it freezes and breaking the monitor so

47
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:44,080
uh it's starting to get to the point where this is so nauseating that it I

48
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:48,400
need to look away from it for a minute but that's great because I need to talk

49
00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:52,680
about what's going on here it shouldn't be the crystals themselves freezing

50
00:03:50,599 --> 00:03:58,599
those should be good down to as low as -60 but what does happen is they start

51
00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:02,760
to gel up which increases the resistance that the display interface needs to

52
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:07,760
overcome in order to twist them so what we're looking at here is the most

53
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:09,680
extreme example of how pixel response

54
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:14,519
times affect the gaming experience because both of these displays are

55
00:04:11,959 --> 00:04:18,959
running at 60 refreshes per second it's just that the pixels take so long to

56
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:23,720
reach the new state we end up with this blurry flash bangy drunk goggles image

57
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:30,360
oh man I don't know if we're going to make it to minus 400 this is damn near

58
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:36,320
unplayable you see that just like with a flashbang I almost had yeah who who who

59
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:40,639
who it looks like it's kind of changing in the background a little bit on some

60
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:46,360
parts of the display oh did you see that the very top of the display is still

61
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:48,039
refreshing but the rest isn't so again

62
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,400
what we're seeing is the way a screen refreshes is typically from top to

63
00:04:49,479 --> 00:04:55,960
bottom so it's going like okay here's a new here's a

64
00:04:53,759 --> 00:05:01,160
new oh here we go this is really interesting too now we can see that the

65
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:06,720
red pixels are or sub pixels rather seem to be having the hardest time twisting

66
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:10,080
so maybe their viscosity is higher as

67
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,479
temperatures go down we're only at - 32

68
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:16,120
right now I really don't think we're going to make it to- 40 I think she's

69
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:22,039
done bud can she even get a static image up there it's kind of starting to kind

70
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:23,880
of do something I think it's fair to say

71
00:05:22,039 --> 00:05:30,280
she didn't make it to - 40 come on out little buddy sorry about

72
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:34,280
that oh hey look at that she only had to get a little bit warmer

73
00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:38,160
on the very front for it to be able to display an image again I got to get this

74
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:42,560
unplugged before she gets Frosty though good job buddy here's a fun one you've

75
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:47,479
probably heard about solar flares and how dangerous they can be for computer

76
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:50,440
systems here on Earth and well we don't

77
00:05:47,479 --> 00:05:55,720
have a sun but what we do have is a CT scanner from Luma field that we can use

78
00:05:52,759 --> 00:06:01,960
to blast Cosmic like X-rays at stuff like hey this computer all we got to do

79
00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:04,520
is close our up and configure a couple

80
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:09,639
of things while lus is working on that I have some dark urges of my own while

81
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:14,160
everyone knows that you should eject your USB before you pull it out so that

82
00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:19,039
you don't corrupt your files what would happen if I pulled out maybe the whole

83
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:23,360
SSD we're currently playing valheim and it's installed on this drive right here

84
00:06:22,280 --> 00:06:27,440
we're walking around the world look at all that what would happen if I

85
00:06:27,759 --> 00:06:34,039
just look at that we're still playing the game now when you're using your

86
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:37,240
computer the stuff that you're actively using is going to be sitting in RAM so

87
00:06:35,759 --> 00:06:41,560
we should be fine for now we can look around we can jump we can punch stuff

88
00:06:39,479 --> 00:06:45,680
like we're still playing the game but the moment that we have to load

89
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:53,319
something it goes away but you see

90
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:58,879
Windows is still running because we haven't removed our boot drive so what

91
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:03,639
would happen if we did that look at that it's crazy it's it still works that's

92
00:07:01,319 --> 00:07:06,560
because Windows is mostly running in RAM right now you can actually get entire

93
00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:10,400
operating systems that will run exclusively in RAM but this isn't one of

94
00:07:08,840 --> 00:07:15,080
them and you'll see that when we say try to look at file

95
00:07:12,319 --> 00:07:19,639
explorer look at file look at there could be some very

96
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:25,000
important information traveling between the SSD and your RAM and it could end up

97
00:07:22,639 --> 00:07:28,840
causing severe harm to your system you're probably going to be okay but hey

98
00:07:27,319 --> 00:07:32,560
why are you tempting fate that's what we're doing we tempted and it's for

99
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:38,879
those very reasons that you probably expect that when we pull out our

100
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:40,520
RAM it shuts down immediately ooh spicy

101
00:07:38,879 --> 00:07:45,240
this is what I mean you don't know what you're going to screw up and now we're in a repair mode let's hope that it

102
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,280
doesn't slow us down too much obviously taking RAM out is going to be a problem

103
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:54,759
but what would happen if we just you know put RAM in I'm I'm so surprised I thought that

104
00:07:52,319 --> 00:07:57,199
we would plug it in it would trip voltage monitor or something there' like

105
00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:02,639
be a ShortCircuit because of the connecting of the pins and whatever we don't have 16 GB of RAM right now we're

106
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:07,879
still stuck as if we were running off of the single dim what if can I take this

107
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:12,120
one out now hey maybe that was a fluke let's try

108
00:08:10,039 --> 00:08:17,080
this a second time you still get the RGB we've seen

109
00:08:15,479 --> 00:08:21,639
some crashes and stuff but I just feel like we haven't actually done any damage

110
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:28,319
what if we delete system 32 and delete it's that easy except for

111
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:34,200
it isn't Windows actually doesn't want you to break your own PC and so it asks

112
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:38,080
for trusted installer permission to delete the folder and it won't let you

113
00:08:36,519 --> 00:08:42,440
get any further from this even if you're an administrator it doesn't matter but I

114
00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:48,000
know of a tool the command line that will let us do anything we want watch as

115
00:08:44,839 --> 00:08:48,000
I in one simple

116
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,519
command as and then when I also say yes

117
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:59,680
to all it's a lot of red unauthorized

118
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:03,040
access exception why can't I I have a computer that just listens to what I

119
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,839
tell it to do I think I know a guy who knows about computers and making them do

120
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:11,800
what he wants it's Jordan ah yes the command

121
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:17,000
line one final reminder before we do this don't deleting system 32 will harm

122
00:09:15,560 --> 00:09:21,800
your computer if you understand this warning hit the like button to proceed

123
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:24,350
just down there all right open up the command line as an administrator and

124
00:09:23,680 --> 00:09:31,200
type this in congratulations you now own all the

125
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:34,880
folders in system 32 you've massively compromised the security and the

126
00:09:32,839 --> 00:09:39,600
functionality of your PC but we're not done yet let's confirm this kill use

127
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:44,839
this next command to change your Access Control level and now we just delete

128
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,839
system

129
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:51,120
32 okay so we removed a lot of files but

130
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:56,440
why is Windows still working what if we try like doing something well you've

131
00:09:54,160 --> 00:10:01,399
angered it this is all your fault control shift Escape control delete oh

132
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:06,360
failure to display security and I've never seen that before me neither I like

133
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:09,240
the just X just X do you want to try

134
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:13,680
rebooting it yeah okay automatic repair oh my it's so bored it can't do anything

135
00:10:11,519 --> 00:10:16,959
it's booting into here that implies that the recovery files were in system

136
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:25,160
32 I think this computer's sufficiently borked okay um my work here is done yes

137
00:10:23,399 --> 00:10:31,320
you've done a wonderful job now it's my turn Adam's making me do this it'll be

138
00:10:28,519 --> 00:10:31,320
fun

139
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:37,519
yeah don't worry it's l free yeah this

140
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:43,880
isn't as satisfying as I had hoped not only is it not fun it's a waste of

141
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:46,560
solder yeah really is let's do something

142
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:50,959
slightly less stupid PC fans at their core are basically just an electric

143
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:55,160
motor you apply some power to it it spins your fan but if you are the one

144
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:59,320
that spins it suddenly your electric motor becomes an electric generator

145
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:04,560
let's test it here we have a multimeter connected to a fan a tachometer and some

146
00:11:02,079 --> 00:11:04,560
compressed

147
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:11,600
air now let's spin it and kill the motherboard given that we only saw like

148
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:15,000
6 volts on the multimeter here when we spun this fan up I think the

149
00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:18,839
motherboard's going to be fine these are 12vt fans the header can probably handle

150
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:22,800
12 volts here's the graph of our fan speed it's currently spinning at 2,000

151
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:29,519
RPM and if we just give it a little bit of encouragement

152
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:31,360
here there we go look at that

153
00:11:29,519 --> 00:11:36,000
we need the graph to go higher all right we're at a 7500

154
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:45,480
RPM whatever reason it think it's going 1,000 RPM now that is not

155
00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:47,920
correct huh it's fine it's totally fine

156
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:54,760
the RPMs for whatever reason went down to like 900 RPM when it was going over

157
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:58,519
7,000 but I'm guessing that's just the math getting screw when it goes way

158
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:02,639
faster than expected but according to this it went up to 7 7600 RPM and she's

159
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:06,399
totally fine I don't think you have to worry about this too much but you know

160
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:11,240
what you definitely have to worry about water I don't know why I said it like

161
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:16,600
that water technically water doesn't damage your computer pure water isn't

162
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:18,000
conductive it's what's disolved inside

163
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:23,279
the water that counts this isn't pure water though so

164
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:26,160
this is probably pretty bad so Adam's currently playing crisis and he's just

165
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:29,839
going to keep playing until this computer stops working is it still going

166
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:34,600
it's going fine yeah we're doing totally fine see spraying water on computers

167
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:40,160
again can be fine until that shoo builds up unfortunately everything's got shoo

168
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:45,760
in it so at some point this will give out is it still going

169
00:12:42,639 --> 00:12:47,800
no oh game over would you like me to

170
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:52,560
keep going yeah I think we should stop okay the fans are still spinning the

171
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:56,290
power supply has not tripped yeah despite you spraying directly into the

172
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:58,120
back of

173
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:07,320
it why is there thermal paste all over the CPU yeah the Linus 5 hours later

174
00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:10,839
we're coming back to our system that we put inside the Luma field and am I

175
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:15,639
expecting there to be anything wrong with it it didn't even so much as crash

176
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:19,040
well here's the thing this blasts x-rays which I don't know if you've ever been

177
00:13:16,639 --> 00:13:22,000
to an airport but your laptop goes through an x-ray reader every time you

178
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:26,959
go on there sure and as long as your laptop isn't a you know analog film

179
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:32,360
camera then it's probably not going to have an issue with that yeah

180
00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:37,839
at first Luma field does publish guidelines for how long is safe to

181
00:13:34,639 --> 00:13:39,920
expose Electronics to their machine and

182
00:13:37,839 --> 00:13:43,839
they're pretty long and they're probably padding the estimates yeah and even if

183
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,839
we were trying to guarantee that something went wrong with this who knows

184
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:52,639
if it would actually affect something that matters on what we're doing on our system we saw this actually when we

185
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:57,519
tried to EMP blast literally the RAM chips on a

186
00:13:55,199 --> 00:14:00,920
laptop we had to get like right in there they're pretty resilient

187
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:10,440
so if you ever want to bring your laptop to your next CAT scan you can totally do

188
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:14,360
that tell the doctors that we said it was okay do you know what else is okay a
