Which PC Parts can Survive being Frozen in ICE?

[@gert2628]

There seems to be a few problems with this video. I think you should've waited to for it to melt from the beginning without pulling stuff out. Also, you didn't give the parts enough time to dry as the mouse was still wet and the modern graphics card has a lot of crevices for water to be trapped. Finally, when you were testing the motherboard, I noticed the plug on the graphics card side had partially fallen off so it's possible that caused the motherboard to not post.

[@malcolmyp247]

Cmos battery not installed as well. Also one of the reasons why it didn't post

[@TwinShards]

@@malcolmyp247 Some pc/motherboard will still post without a cmos battery. However it will throw up a dead or missing cmos error if it post.

[@warrax111]

@@TwinShards all motherboards post without cell battery. Some of them refuse to go after BIOS thought, or store data from BIOS (so they cannot even detect hard drive and store it, so BIOS knows what disk was detected etc...)

[@zUltra3D]

The newer GPU was probably still wet which caused shorts, same goes the mouse The hard drive still worked because they're sealed to prevent dust from corrupting data

[@kilgarragh]

Dust doesn’t corrupt data. They are sealed so it doesn’t land on the disk and crash into the microscopic magnetic head at 7200 rpm

[@JessicaFEREM]

Drives aren't sealed they have air holes

[@zUltra3D]

@@kilgarragh well if the dust happens to go through the read head, couldn't it make it malfunction or something, making it write garbled data?

[@ISAK.M]

@@zUltra3D 1 spec of dust can completely destroy the entire drive as it bounces around on the platter at 5400 or 7200 rpm. Essentially rendering it useless.

[@yeejay6396]

How about this. Don't expose electronics to stupidity. That simple.

[@TwinShards]

You should have do a proper drying of all parts before putting them to the test. Obviously the older GPU will survive because there's less tiny air tight zones for the water to stay trap and not dry. And for the new GPU & Mouse it's basically the same story but flipped the other way around.

[@HanifAhmad02]

Exactly

[@user-fe7bo5mm1o]

would be interesting to see the results if they were completely dry and cleaned off water residue

[@sabianwarner5316]

In theory, they would be completely unaffected unless the expanding of the water damaged anything. This is if the parts had no minerals tho otherwise I have no idea myself lol

[@yeejay6396]

@@sabianwarner5316 I doubt there'd be much difference....

[@garyr7027]

There's a high chance once dried out completely it will work just fine. I know this because I washed one once. Artifacts at first but once all dried out with air nozzle from a air compressor it had zero problems.

[@germanfisch]

@@MarcelSchr Fun Fact: space has no temperature

[@nick-team-kinetic-energy]

The hard drive kept working because there is an airtight seal where the disks are and it prevented water from getting into the disks so it still worked

[@germanfisch]

What about the breathing hole

[@nick-team-kinetic-energy]

@@germanfisch ah it’s not 100% airtight, but the hole has a filter on the other side so water won’t get through that either

[@magman687]

Assuming you let them dry properly every single electrical component will work just fine

[@neosonixyz]

Yeah, although I wonder what would happen if you repeatedly do this, because water will freeze and expand in gaps

[@magman687]

@@neosonixyz yeah definitely could cause issues in that sense. But judging by how the video card acted this time I'm 90% sure it still had water in it somewhere. But I agree with you I do feel like if it were frozen and unfrozen multiple times that it would eventually quit working no matter how dry you let it get just because the small fractures that would be created

[@noobiii]

the newer gpu might still malfunction because of the metal lol

Not true . Maybe if it wasn't tap water since that has other metals and minerals

The reason the HDD survived is because it has a seal between the actual mechanics and the outside which makes it waterproof. Maybe the board too?

[@TwinShards]

the HDD probably would have break if it was placed in the middle of the ice cube. Being near the side the ice had no mechanical power to compress the tin silver cover (bending inward this cover into the disc can break the HDD)

why didnt you take the heatsinks and plastics off and dry the parts? it probably would have made the new gpu and mouse survive, seems like more of a user error simulator then a actual water survival test.

freezing it or heating it will have the most minimal and negligible thermal expansion if at all typically damage from thermal expansion are from years of cycles

[@peteip2604]

The damage is mostly caused by liquid damage to more liquid sensitive parts of the graphics card. If you just use liquid nitrogen on the GPU, isolating the rest of the card from liquid damage, you can get it to work. Also there is still water and condensation building up on the card, when you removed the ice.
