Liquid Metal Mayhem
Linus’s ASUS ROG Flow X13 met a gruesome end when its liquid metal thermal compound leaked onto the motherboard and shorted everything out. In classic DIY hero mode, he cracks the chassis open, scrubs off every last drop of conductive goo, and faces a fresh round of unexpected hiccups before even getting close to power-on.
Resurrection and Reflection
After disaster strikes again mid-cleanup, Linus swaps the risky liquid metal for trusty PTM7950, reassembles the rig, and fires it up to see if it survives. In the end, he tests thermal performance, confirms (or denies) a successful revival, and weighs whether chasing ultra-low temps with liquid metal is really worth the drama.
