Linus Tech Tips (LTT): Liquid Metal Killed my Laptop… Now What?

In this video Linus Sebastian tackles a catastrophic liquid metal spill on an ASUS ROG Flow X13 gaming laptop, diving into an intense DIY teardown and cleanup after the conductive coolant shorted out the hardware. As he painstakingly removes residue and swaps the risky paste for PTM7950, things go sideways in classic tech-drama fashion—think sparks, spilled goo, and mounting frustration.

Ultimately, the team tests thermal performance, debates whether liquid metal is really worth the gamble, and reveals if this laptop can be resurrected from its own molten misadventure.
