I do not often visit der8auer, but I came across this video today:
How does he manage to have the notebook in the water (or what it is) without breaking it?
He does not use water but 3M Novec
What is different about it or why does not the technology break it?
I'd say it's a non-conductor. Hence for the PC like air.
It does not conduct power in contrast to water so you can immerse hardware without problems in the 3M Novec. The problem with water is not the humidity that damages the hardware, but the conductivity of the electricity, which causes short circuits in the water.
The liquid is not conductive and does not corrode the material of motherboard etc.
Because this liquid is not conductive and thus can't cause a short circuit. On Youtube there are also mineral oil PCs, where all the hardware (except for the power supply) is housed in an aquarium-filled aquarium. Based on the same principle. Very interesting!
Can rust hardware from it?
That's 3m novec, he uses that more often. He also says several times in the video.
There's no reason that he should break if he is in m3 novec. Non-conductive and otherwise compatible with most plastics and metals.
No, the hardware does not rust, said primaro already.
Protects the hardware even against rust. This is an oil, there's no water in it. Oxygen should not get to the computer.
Sorry, I can't read all the answers, if I have read three where all write the same, the fourth also starts with the same.
As already said several times no water was used, but "M3 Novec". This is an artificially produced, acidic liquid which is * electrically non-conductive *. Water would short-circuit electrical devices and destroy them immediately.
Novec is used because it evaporates at about 70 degrees (or so?) And thus has a strong cooling effect, it can also be cooled below zero without sinking and is therefore a simple, but for everyday use financially unprofitable method To cool hardware quickly and completely or to protect against condensation, if one operates extreme overclocking.
Below zero
Unfortunately, less than 0 degrees Kelvin is not possible, even at this 0K our researchers have very bad problems these days. You have to be content with "Joa, so Pi times digging thumb around the 0K".
I talk, as usual in Germany when talking about temperatures, of degrees Celsius. 0 degrees Kelvin is called the "absolute zero point".
My statement here was that the liquid does not freeze even at temperatures below 0 ° C and therefore can be used for extreme cooling situations.
By the way: pure H2O is not conductive
Because it is not electrically conductive. Absolutely pure water (deionized water), the technology would not break, because there are no free charge carriers. Only by dissolved minerals / salts does water become conductive.
Thanks, did anyone claim the opposite?
No, I just wanted to say it.
Was probably the surrounding language, which is not common in my environment? May be. According to Google:
"zero point temperature"
The absolute
Zero denotes the lower limit for the
Temperature. This defines the origin of the absolute temperature scale and is set as 0 K, which corresponds to -273.15 ° C. The existence and extrapolated value of absolute zero can be deduced from the first law of Gay-Lussac.
and
"freezing point temperature"
The most well-known
Freezing point is that of water. On the temperature scale divided into degrees Celsius, it forms or defines the zero point. If someone without further details of "
Freezing point "speaks, he usually means the purest water, so 0 ° C.
But as I said, can also be colloquially correct, as Jeman would like to buy a Gelaendewagen and says he wants a Jeep and buy NEN Range Rover…
Maybe that's the best way to keep our heads off
