okay so this has been extraordinarily cryptic there's something behind me that I have not been allowed to see I've have not been allowed to hear about and all I know about it is that it does not include any manner of pyrotechnics so fortunately I brought my own oh it's really heavy oh it's it's dirty oh my goodness hey Linus do you know where the materials used to make your devices come from though there are minerals in almost every piece of technology you own how do you think these for minerals ended up in your device I feel like I was supposed to read something before that Oh Tim here we go it's ten that's just a rock Huck rock heavy rock great that looks like a rock whoo titanium this is like the badasses mineral see this rock actually looks like a hunk of metal so let's start arranging these I feel like a scientist I'm informed that says tantalum not titanium like what do i do do I just all right that's it Oh cut enough of this okay I think I'm Oh sick gold ah there we go and tungsten okay so this seems to be the next piece some of these minerals came from mines in the Congo where innocent people are being threatened by warlords you can help interesting so there's one last piece of this very cool I had no idea I'm surprised that they weren't talking about this right when they were releasing this stuff okay so this is a latest generation Broadwell II core i7 of some sort here and so tin often used as a replacement for lead which is good by the way the gold which is used for the pins as well as I think some other components because of its non corroding nature tantalum the key ingredient in tantalum capacitors so solid state capacitors and tungsten used to conduct electricity and integrated circuits and metallic films all of these are now conflict free Wow that is very cool I have to say I was expecting for this video something more along the lines of like like a space capsule or Master System like some kind of some kind of a cheesy sort of marketing message but this is actually much more serious and actually really important so thank you guys very much for watching this unboxing of well sort of a core i7 69 50 X but much more importantly the materials that it is actually composed of so I think that pretty much wraps it up as always if you want to buy a conflict-free processor you'll find a link to pricing and availability in the video description if you want to subscribe to our videos you can do that if you liked this video guys please do hit that like button maybe give it a share because this is pretty important for not just Intel but other participants in the electronics industry who I think we can all agree could do a better job both on the mineral side and the labor side of things of making their devices less harmful to the world and so thanks again for watching and we'll see you guys next time
