LOL One thing they do not stress enough is get your filtering process down, practiced, built, understood... before you do anything. That's where it first can start spiraling out of control.

Some quick maths here for whoever in interested: If average CPU weight is 60g then that would mean there would be approximately 233 CPUs. They would have to be sold at about £20 each to have the same value as the gold resulted from the melting.maybe less if I knew how much silver was melted. So conclusion is that depending how old they are it might not be worth putting them back on the market and melting is better option. I did not take in to account the time and materials of the melting process as I'm not familiar with the costs.

Honest question.... Why didn't you crush the chips ? Inside of those sandwiched ceramic plates are tiny gold wires from each pin to the chip. I doubt the gold escaped from between the ceramic plates without breaking them open.
@OwlTech3339 місяців тому
There's no gold bonding wires inside the ceramics! From GRF: "A standard ceramic CPU is made of several layers of ceramics bonded together. between the layers (while the ceramics is still unfired, also called green) is screen printed conductors of molybdenum. The ceramic body is then fired and the molybdenum that is exposed is then gold plated. On the bottom or side, pins are brazed or soldered and in the cavity bond wires are used to connect landing pads on the die with the exposed gold plated conductors. For bonding wires aluminum or gold can be used. Inside the ceramic body is the molybdenum conductors and the only gold is the exposed gold and the gold under the die. To use gold inside the ceramic body would be problematic. Thermal expansion and contraction will break conductors over time unless it expands with the same rate as the ceramic body. Molybdenum is the solution on this problem and it is cheaper that gold. Göran"
@John-ir2zf9 місяців тому

There's no gold bonding wires inside the ceramics! From GRF "A standard ceramic CPU is made of several layers of ceramics bonded together. between the layers (while the ceramics is still unfired, also called green) is screen printed conductors of molybdenum. The ceramic body is then fired and the molybdenum that is exposed is then gold plated. On the bottom or side, pins are brazed or soldered and in the cavity bond wires are used to connect landing pads on the die with the exposed gold plated conductors. For bonding wires aluminum or gold can be used. Inside the ceramic body is the molybdenum conductors and the only gold is the exposed gold and the gold under the die. To use gold inside the ceramic body would be problematic. Thermal expansion and contraction will break conductors over time unless it expands with the same rate as the ceramic body. Molybdenum is the solution on this problem and it is cheaper that gold. Göran"

You got .65% or .0065 of 14,000 grams or 91 grams worth roughly $6500. But you had to pay for the chips and all your equipment and fuel and time. Ain't nothing free. good job.
