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
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
Drives aren't sealed they have air holes
@@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?
@@zUltraXO 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.
How about this. Don't expose electronics to stupidity. That simple.
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.
Cmos battery not installed as well. Also one of the reasons why it didn't post
@@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.
@@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...)
@@malcolmyp247 all modern pc motherboards can post without CMOS battery, they store the data in NVRAM instead of battery now
@@RAILGUNSHOOT uhh no they use the battery to keep the data intact so it doesnt reset your bios ant tome settings
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.
Exactly
would be interesting to see the results if they were completely dry and cleaned off water residue
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
@@sabianwarner5316 I doubt there'd be much difference....
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.
Chinese do that. After mining 😉
4:25 introducing the brand new green screen of death!
How to cool computer parts:
Google: replace thermal paste, increase ventilation/airflow
Bing:
🤣
DuckDuckGo: pour liquid nitrogen all over the PC
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
What about the breathing hole
@@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
I would be interested to know how many of the parts survive liquid nitrogen that freezes much faster and more aggressively
none nitrogen cracks everything because of how aggressive it is
@@user-fe7bo5mm1o then why people use liquid nitrogen to extremely overclock computers?
@@Tobi_DarkKnight nitrogen cooling doesn't mean just pouring nitrogen on a graphics card. it's done in a specific way and it's used because the card gets extremely hot. if the card isn't hot the nitrogen is just gonna crack it.
@@user-fe7bo5mm1o I think so too, but considering that technology gets very cold in space, it would be worth a try
@@MarcelSchr Fun Fact: space has no temperature
Everyone: "why would someone do this?"
mryeester: "I think we have computer soup!"
Everyone: "understandable, have a nice day"
I was also thinking that the hard drive could have been affected by thermal expansion and water damage but then again it's not a Western Digital or Hitachi drive so it makes sense.

Assuming you let them dry properly every single electrical component will work just fine
Yeah, although I wonder what would happen if you repeatedly do this, because water will freeze and expand in gaps
@@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
the newer gpu might still malfunction because of the metal lol
@@noobiii very well could be the reason.
Not true . Maybe if it wasn't tap water since that has other metals and minerals
I left my old rig jostling around in the trunk of my car for an entire Maine winter and was quite surprised to see it worked fine when I plugged it back in 😆
Always have a baseline. Meaning, show it is working. Before you froze it. Also some Dell laptop motherboard refuse to boot without CMOS battery. For mouse, you may want to open it before drying.
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?
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)

More likely was sealed, but some are not as they have a small opening and behind it is a dust filter inside.
4:44 maybe its because you froze them for 3 days and one of them was more protected
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
2:14 this is what boomers think crypto mining is

I really like these longer vids. Even when it’s longer the attention span is really on point. I wounder if you will ever make a pc building video or not. Other than that I really enjoy your experiments
I enjoy the long videos more than the short ones 😬
3:15
I gently disposed the ice
mr yeester : Throws the ice
Takes the "washing your motherboard" meme to a whole other level.
You're iconic in PC community whose every other video is so interesting! Lot's of love!
Very true. Always very educative and entertaining!

SHUT UP
Gooch gooch gooch gooch gooch gooch gooch gooch gooch gooch gooch
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.
If this guy was patient enough to wait longer after thawing for all the water to evapourate and without prying the components out he might have gotten better results.
i remember dropping some old gpu, the main thing was bent but when i plugged it in my older pc it still worked, cant believe how stuff got more fragile overtime
Man goes from 10 views to 400 in like -2 seconds
Edit thanks for the likes
That’s why he is the BOSS when it comes to PC Thinkering
@@Hardwaremoney "thinkering" lol
I have one of those dvi cable splitters too and I always wondered what gen gpu had those
Imagine a world where we have zombie pc parts, I wouldn't be surprised if he's behind this
HHD are airtight enclosure with only solid state electronics on the outside. This was a very good video showing the differences of electronics
the reason the hdd still worked fine is because there sort of sealed in a way has some venting in it but very small and would be hard for the water to get inside it so it would've been just hard frozen outside and not internally
Would be interesting to see if dissembling and properly drying the parts would help, that would show that the ice/cold is the only thing destroying the components, and not the water.
Nice
But is it possible to build a full working PC in a freezer. That would be interesting.
Keep your Great Work up :)
i just love this channel a lot lol

2:22 He took GPU mining too seriously
Finally he did something that I really wanna do when my PC components overheat
Yes finally a longer video
Keep up the great work!
3:45 thank you for identifying this card. I have it, and could not test it. It had strange DVI port. Nothing could be plugged into it. Now I know, that it is OEM Radeon HD3450, with dual DVD-I port. Thank you.
Cool little test lol, I enjoyed it
Thank you men ❤️❤️❤️💙 It's the best video I've seen
the hard drive is basically an air/water tight component. there is little to no openings on most modern hard drives for air/water to get in.
The surviving graphics card surprised me.
and one day, in the year 3000, the motherboard finally got unfrozen
I washed a GPU card once because it was from a smoke environment. At first it worked great when I thought it was completely dried out, but then came major artifacts, and refused to work right until it was completely dried out with a air hose. Most of the moisture was under the ram and GPU. After that though, it worked flawlessly and gamed with zero issues.
fire video, thanks bro
Hey because this is a tech channel I think this is a good question to ask, but I'm upgrading from an r9 fury and want to go nivida. What GPU should I get to replace my fury?
Seagate has a 1TB per platter structure now, so, i believe if you used either an older Seagate, like from BEFORE the fancy green labels, like when the word Barracuda was in Orange, then there would be more than 1 Platter per TB... OR any of the newer 2TB+ Seagate drives are multiple platters.
i went to the the store just to buy some snacks to enjoy this video, love the content 🙃❤
Finally you uploaded
Imagine someone's computer getting frozen in ice during some extinction event, being unearthed by aliens, who then got the HDD data back and just found a massive collection of memes.
3:21 I love your shirt! I’m a huge TLOZ and fan! Awesome video dude!
"Gently dispose the rest of the ice" yeets ice to oblivion

Fun fact. Hard drives are water proof
As long as certain parts didn't break from the temperature, and it dried first. That all should work. But I'd be worried about the watch battery in the mobo filling with water
the amount of problems in this video it’s like u didn’t even want to see which survived and tried ur hardest to break them all
“Technically this is a soup.”
Carful there you are playing with fire.
Love your vids!
Okay guess I won't be freezing my mobo, cpu and ram to save it for later
It was so cold, his CPU was running at peak efficiency 😂
this video hurts me seeing those pour parts being blasted with the #1 enemy i feel so bad for those parts
Looks like you’re probably torn off a filter capacitor, while breaking the ice and some other major components on the graphics card
what about the monitor? and how are you getting any good sound? I think you got some things to freeze
the reason maybe hard drive still works it because its maybe sealed so good until you open it,and that say bye bye to hard drive xd,water didnt maybe even came inside of it
Yeester: will gently dispose this ice...
Also yeester : *yeets it off the balcony*
at 2:17 whats the name of the music that you use because i like it.
Lexica - Tiger Tracks
I love your experiments
Looked fun and devastating. I also have a technical background as radiomechanic.
6:42 im pretty sure the reason it still worked is because drives are sealed so no dust will be able to get in and same for water no water will not be able to get in at least thats what i think
Pretty cool test broh 👍

an ultra random video and first that I watched from you, but damn its a good one
FREEZE THE DAWG
Thank you very much! What a good video ! Keep up creating contents please :) Really good content for real
i'm pretty sure that if instead of just waiting for the things to dry and test them you would open them up, make sure they were all dry and clean, everything would have worked just fine except for the mobo+cpu+ram combo
Hey, what was the CPU you freeze there? And is it dead?
"hmm refreshing" hawkk
What if you installed the cmos battery would that be an issue with motherboard?
Great video, as always your ideas 💡 are super amazing 🤩
3:55 You need the gpu driver, i had the same problem with a old GT 640 or GTX Palit 1070 ti
Should plug some of these in with pure ice on em
Expansion of the water may do the damage, since without electricity water will do 0 damage other than long term corrosion
Paused at 1:34 to make the following prediction. I think the expansion from freezing the water around these parts will cause damage to the small components even if they are completely dry with no corrosion before spinning them back up.
My idea before finishing the video: everything but the HDD. If water got into the HDD, no amount of thorough drying would completely fix it, there would probably be some small contaminates left inside which would reduce its performance or more likely kill it.
The rest, as long as it dries thoroughly, should still work afterwards. Fans may not work though.
Hard Drives, though they aren't completely sealed are fairly water proof INTERNALLY. Water almost certainly didn't make it inside the enclosure so given enough drying time for the external components it's going to be fine.
The newer GPU probably failed because it had water trapped underneath the cooler (considering it still had condensation underneath the plastic). If it had more time to dry, it's possible it still would have worked with the exception of potentially broken heat pipes and would just thermal throttle.
The mouse obviously still had water trapped inside it so it's not a surprise that when you plugged it in caused it to short out and die.
The motherboard not having a CMOS battery in it is one potential reason it failed. I've worked with a few motherboards that will just blank screen while being powered indefinitely if the CMOS battery is dead/missing. The residue, like you said, is also another factor. There's so many bridged connections with the mineral build up that it's stopping it from booting. Removing the CPU/RAM in the motherboard, giving it more time to dry, cleaning up all the residue on it and putting in a CMOS battery could possibly bring it back if it didn't fry itself with the initial boot up.
i think a lot of the mother board damage came from when you sprayed it directly with the water
maybe try the hdd again but with some data, should be interesting
theres a good chance that the damage could of been done while trying to break the ice bud ie when we shock cold kit there a big change of braking solder joints. well done great vid.
never tested the standalone CPU? I was excited to see that :(
THIS IS VERY VERY PAINFUL

I want to see you freeze a block of ice around an air cooler's fins, then test how it performs when installed
7:36 the graphics card is not pluged into the monitor
Freezing pc parts said no one, mryeester I’ll do it!
Me: *plugs the pc in when it’s ice*
Pc: GET YOUR BOT HERE AND HEAT ME UP
bruh this test pc its more better than mine💀💀
first gpu is same as mine so.. i can freeze it without thinking! thanks man
Next time you freeze a component, if you want to get it out, get a seraded knife, a hammer, make a shallow cut in the ice, and gently but firmly tap on the knife, the ice should then split!
