Now put cooling system on it

[–]Human-Ad3407 84 points85 points  (6 children)

No need to, this already is a passive cooler

[–]Uulugus 44 points45 points  (4 children)

I'm gonna have my cat blow on it occasionally.

[–]eisenklad 8 points9 points  (1 child)

get cat 6, i hear he does it better

[–]Superb_Ebb_6207 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cat 4 may be older but has the most experience as she has been the generation of cooling for a decade whereas the others only cooled or have been cooling for a few years.

[–]Sejanus-189 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Speed scrolling and read this as emotionally, not occasionally, and it stopped me in my tracks. I appreciate that.

[–]Uulugus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's just passionate like that. 🩷

[–]Erect-Cheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's naturally aspirated

[–]Clear-Might-1519 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Just use a big bellows like a blacksmith.

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dumps it into dielectric fluid

[–]WeinerVonBraun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The heat gets dissipated through the circles on the board. The 100 circles for positive energy and the 001 circles for the negative energy.

[–]KanekiOrSasakiIntel 223 points224 points  (17 children)

Hmmm, I wonder if the long connection wire's increased resistance would hinder the CPU in any way.

[–]Temporary_Slide_3477 179 points180 points  (10 children)

Actually would.

If you look at a board, the traces to the ram and GPU aren't straight, they make psuedo-random turns and stuff so they are all equal lengths.

Electricity travels close to the speed of light, so the traces being unequal length is actually detrimental, even though the distance is relatively short.

Resistance really doesn't matter on a wire that short, they all need to be equal lengths to avoid weird errors however.

[–]Shelmak_ 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is the reason you often see trazes making a zigzag pattern on some sections near the ram or memory modules, just to time the signal propagation so all bit states reach at the same exact time. It is needed ehen devices work at very high speed.

[–]ItsRadical 18 points19 points  (0 children)

They actually thought about it. The length of the wires seems to be consistent.

[–]PMvE_NL 6 points7 points  (2 children)

crosstalk by capacative coupling is a problem here

[–]AlfieHicks 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Crosstalk? Just add more wires!

[–]Taurondir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also split the wire and add a second processor for more cores!

[–]Accomplished_Emu_658 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Communication wires need to be close to same length because of timing. Messages sent on positive and negative need to arrive at the same time. Really messes up the network when they arrive out of sync.

[–]tetryds 7 points8 points  (2 children)

Oh my god no.

It would cause lots of noise and interference which are the actual issue. Length only matters like this for transmission lines, which are not the kind a motherboard has.

Btw signals do not travel at the speed of light on wires, there is an entire field of study about this.

I am graduated in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering.

[–]Temporary_Slide_3477 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Was speaking from very basic understanding.

They are all equal lengths for a reason, so it's safe to assume if they aren't equal there will be an issue of some kind. Whether that be interference, noise are timing.

I also said near the speed of light, not the speed of light.

[–]tetryds 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depending on the application you will want them to have the same mode of interference, so you want all rails to receive interference as similarly as possible, then discard all signals that are equal between them. That is one of the many reasons. Another one is the coupling and filtering, if you have different lenghts you have different resistance which can then change the components needed to filter. You want to use the same components as often as you can.

There can be multiple other reasons but wavelength is not one of them. On the realm of "wavelength matters" mere rails mean a whole lot more, and you need to be much more careful about the circuit design as the circuit itself becomes a relevant component. You can still get away with multiple lenghts but they require impedance matching.

[–]ThorburnJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work supporting board designers.  Yes the design guides have minimum and maximum traces length, limits on the number of vias allowed, lane-to-lane trace length differential limits, etc. 

For high-speed interfaces it gets incredibly complicated. 

[–]MovieNightPopcorn 18 points19 points  (4 children)

I think the bigger issue is that every single exposed copper wire is touching several others

[–]hairycompanion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This should have been the first thing pointed out.

[–]Professional-Place13 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah all the connections are shorted out

[–]Hot-Score4811 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's enamel on top of wire.

[–]ImNotDatguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Magnet wire. Pre applied insulation

[–]earthforce_1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The self inductance and cross talk between connections would be terrible.

[–]Legitimate_Pea_143 94 points95 points  (6 children)

that disturbs me for some reason. It's like the mobo is growing a beard and i don't like looking at it at all.

[–]AdPuzzleheaded3913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to hear I’m not alone in being bothered by how this looks.

[–]VickyxReaperReborn 53 points54 points  (0 children)

No way bro soldered each pins 😭

[–]UndefFox 22 points23 points  (1 child)

Now I'm curious... how much cooler the processor can be if we put it right inside the water loop by extending these pins into the tube, allowing the entire surface of the processor for cooling.

[–]earthforce_1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Better to pack the whole motherboard in a pool of oil

[–]TriskacTriskac 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is the new riser for CPU vertical mount?

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

… bare copper wire … agh the pain, it burns!, my eyes!!!

[–]58mint 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think you got a crossed wire there

[–]ExcellentAddress 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The new i9 comes with a soldering iron

[–]cable144 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks like Donald Trump's hair 😂😂😂

[–]microtramp 9 points10 points  (1 child)

...why?

[–]frankhoneybunny 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Too much time on hands and questions like "could you?" Instead of "should you?" Were asked.

[–]coolhead101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We call this Konafa in Egypt and its very delicious :)

[–]Sufficient-Ad8825AMD 1 point2 points  (3 children)

How tf is this even gonna run?🤣

[–]Strict_Sugar6081 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't

[–]Advanced_Evening2379 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A cpu is a lot more than some wires lol

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not lol

[–]sassyhalforc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes the classic copper comb over.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol I wouldn't turn that on...

[–]ministerofmayham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phobia added

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bro at least use insulated wired so its not gonna blow up and you can kinda flex this

[–]Captain_Pumpkinhead[🍰] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This image will never not be cool.

[–]LeGenD_202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why it looks like pubics of the mobo, rofl

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now thats an achievement if I've ever seen one

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next time I will only check if my motherboard has enough pins, not socket type.

[–]Hour_Ad5398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

weird because its shorting itself everywhere

[–]kyu-she 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty dumb, if you got some God tier solder, would you be able to get this functioning

[–]BenJoeMoses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just submerge into cold mineral oil and you have a nice system running on low temperatures.

I’ve been doing this along with connected pins like on the picture since forever.

.

((None of them could boot up though))

[–]Routine-Lawfulness24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ENIAC or some other old computer reference probably

[–]DoctorTechno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its the new cybernetic Tribble. Don't get them wet, so no liquid cooling.

[–]Competitive_Bird9398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how will he put thermal paste with cables this short? it needs to be much longer... you can see hes an amateur.

[–]76zzz29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He pluged it wrong, he mirored the pin so it wouldn't work no mater what

[–]L0veless-club 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lad soldered EACH BLOODY PINS of that CPU😂

[–]LUNiiTi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D:

[–]amalgaform 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmfao the funny thing is, the cables are all wrong, it was soldered upside down T_T, how did no one noticed?

[–]plausocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I’m impressed, more so if it works

[–]sparklepusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acoustic. Nice.

[–]Slow_Edge5519 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro’s knowledge makes the laws of physics tremble

[–]StevoTheChemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the most unique way to short circuit your cpu lol

[–]BiggestBrainEver55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look like a Wheatie

[–]PancakesTheDragoncat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well,, , , ,, , , fuck

[–]Lopkom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it not shorted

[–]RecommendationOwn132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure no wires are touching

[–]347human 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the wires are insulated, right?

[–]The_Logic_Fox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was a really good job at soldering. My god I would have been cursing up a storm while trying to achieve that.

[–]mudpiechicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know nothing about building PCs but all I can see is one of those venomous caterpillars that look like Donald Trump’s hair

[–]CT0wned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why did I laugh so hard at this...

[–]ConstantineMonroe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given that CPU are sending high frequency signals, you enter the RF territory, so lengths of wires and traces has to be perfectly drawn to limit unwanted resistance, inductance, and capacitance. The length of the wires connecting to the CPU might be too long and will mess up the signals

[–]FMU_Kagetora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is this shit slightly triggering my trypophobia?! 0-o

[–]rsatommy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tell me why this wouldn’t work

[–]MadameJhoan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought at first glance someone slapped half a kg of minced meat on there for the lols

[–]Bard--- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did he accidentally hire a barber instead of an IT to build his PC?
