so the basic premise of today's cooling experiments with alex i super don't know why this is here is that the macbook pro 2018 does a pretty subpar job of keeping its core i9 cpu cool if you opted for the tricked out core on i model well we think we can fix that using the same cooling principles as we were able to fix the razor phone and its throttling while gaming with that is to say liquid metal cooling but then there's also like a radiator and a reservoir and some laptop stands and some water blocks so i have no idea what this is going on today why don't we all find out together Kable mods configurator now includes a customizable RGB backplate that can enhance the look of your GPUs and SSDs it's compatible with our sync RGB fusion mystic light sink or kala mods own kit find out more at the link below you pulled out all the stops like there's two iFixit kids yeah what are we doing oh I actually just had a difficult time getting it open so I thought that I might have like stripped one of the screws but it's actually just the peas and not the tea's so I was just an idiot so step one of any cooling project is wasn't me rip open the device you're trying to cool so I will take you up on one of these kits these things are kind of nerve-wracking to open cuz they're five grams yeah five brandish like it looked so much easier and I fix its video how do they do that are you free yes there we go beautiful you can really tell what gives it the rigidity though yeah that's pretty nice this make a computer case out of a small block alone what are inches bits would you go through so you want to know my really bad idea that probably won't work sure you want a water cool it yeah I really don't know if this is a very good idea I don't even see how the heat pipe comes off to be perfectly honest with you usually you have to take the whole board off and the screws are on the other side okay so what are we taking off no I'm trackpad first I think you have to take the trackpad out how are we keeping track of the list I'm placing them in here hi we'll be back so lower are these points trackpad upper are these ones trackpad flippy chums also there's T for s and T fives in here that's I'll just draw the fans on there yeah that pretty self-explanatory yep it's got a bigger head uh where'd those two come out of was right here and right here okay what was the purpose of this screw being shorter there's plenty of room for it to go further if it needed to oh they're just a different screwed up defense crew thank you track I don't know how you're not getting it with the t43 all these have to come out oh my god yeah right oh my god is this yet gonna this is yet another different screw holy ball sack so that's top left and there's more Henry then oh wow so this little thing hooks on a little thing here then goes down to why you do this I think this whole thing is a mistake thank you I think now I just kind of wanted to go back together and work I think we're close I'm starting to think we need to do away with the grand plans of water cooling and whatever this is oh it would be so fun fun fun yes are you having fun how many types of screws does it take to get to the fun 16 I think we're just gonna have to peel off the adhesive just like oh there must be a ribbon under there real yeah look there's a ribbon right here we're just the mystic super-small there we go now we can probably lift it up this way that's it this is a royal pain in the ass I actually feel legitimately very bad for people whose job is to fix mac books all day that's their cooling solution yeah no wonder the thing thermal throttle how much does it even weigh I actually want to know okay never mind what I have this thing for your drugs fifty three or four ish grams by contrast a desktop processor would get a cooling solution that weighs in the neighborhood of 1.2 kilos that's a pretty excessive cooler but yeah okay that's true I don't even think liquid metal is gonna solve this wait no it'll help like that looks like some not great thermal paste well we have to try I mean we don't have to try thank you real honest tactics we have to try yeah so it's conformal coating time done uh-oh wow that's a lot can I help pick some of that up or you know let's just spread that around no components are dying here today you can say with a straight face that they're not dying because they're dead already or we might want to get the heat gun out to try a bit faster well look at it this way mg chemicals says that you're supposed to do three coats but we'll probably be fine with one really not how painting things on works that moment when people are watching a video on YouTube and they are literally watching us watch paint dry so this is it liquid model time yeah do you want to do it sure you know hell yeah brother that I'm gonna prime it to wanna give it down mistake last week why are you doing that over the board you have a lot of time for this there's a ball with it oh it's kind of sketch yeah here we go okay we're good oh there's something there we should get that I think it'd be easier oh thanks girl hey if I knew just spreading in a red bag hey hey actually this may be even too much Wow we should do his heart liquid metal application I bet I've had someone on the internet would be into it like am I really a fan of ASMR but I could probably get into that good for his heart you don't want to put on too much because that if it seems out [Laughter] fuck the actual I really want to hear an ASMR cover of CHOP Sumida this is such a surprisingly stressful operation yeah I was expecting you to be more like a normal laptop that all of the other laptops that are taking apart and like boom and like five minutes later you're done I'd like to think you go a little more careful even but pretty much still wonder Rossman didn't think the iMac Pro would be a big deal they compared to tooling around with these all the time it's nothing so we are now liquid metal and now we have to put this back together yeah do you remember where the screws go there was one that went on the bottom right so we know that was on the top it was just really hidden it's possible that there's like this is similar to tightly no I'm like quite sure ok so there's nothing that goes in on the bottom not without permission anyway right you can put all the connectors back on that don't go gently it's that like Dylan Thomas reference you're still in Thomas call it you don't get to float a poem if you don't know who it's fine that's like actually a rule it's a screw that goes into a screw it's perception no wonder we couldn't figure that one out holy crap can you imagine if we had tried to do this without the project mat you would have been so screwed wow that's really obnoxious like you have to have this whole thing on what is this that goes on this little peg here so you sort of get in position and give her fund so unnecessary everything about this is unnecessary it could just sit on there and you could just screw it in oh we probably shouldn't do that quite yet I want to see it fan spin oh you don't think that we like you need these to you I doubt it but let's put them in anyway look it's not hurt and it was haha goodness Wow it was stressful at that moment when the delay is just I voted too long for comfort so you need screws in the MacBook for it to turn on we know that now what the hell Apple yeah okay maybe it was just unhappy cuz it tried to resume from sleep and actually it was like unplugged for a while in here okay try pets working shall we get some after results yes I know what if our operation was worth the stress and time so not cool get it cuz it's about the MacBook Pro alright so we're looking for 1083 1083 is what we had before okay I said we get like 1600 in the Asus yeah but that was fully Matata yeah it doesn't totally count fans haven't even wrapped up yet are they working free question 1068 okay that's within regular just hit again and sure no it's ramping I think yeah yeah that's right think really slowly interesting does it normally take that long to ramp up I think they're pretty on the go by the end of the Senate venture on I wonder if the liquid metal is helping us with that 1086 exactly the similar so okay performance the same but now let's try the longer tests normally use the F keys but wait you don't like the touch bar I really hate it bitch Christ and work the blender BMW test all took 6 minutes and 11 seconds and with the liquid metal it was 6 minutes and 7 seconds so basically the same so a big fat waste of time and the classroom took 22 minutes and 58 seconds stock it took 19 minutes and 26 seconds with liquid metal no that's actually pretty good that's like 13% faster or something like that that's like she's like a pretty big improvement so there was a point to doing this yeah and then how loud was it towards the end of that second test there like spooky quiet almost well that's fantastic so once again liquid metal saves the day and once again we are not recommending that you try this at home this actually comes in the box of the liquid metal we don't recommend doing this because the risk of damaging your Hardware during the disassembly the application of the liquid metal and the reassembly is quite high not to mention that we have definitely voided the warranty on this machine in the process and the the benefit is maybe 10% to 15% faster renders which is actually pretty sick but over time liquid metal does actually need to be periodically reapplied and that's not a great user experience No no it's not I'm just really sad that we can't put blowing the trots on the bottom yeah me too we'd have to like actually cut holes in it because of the whole case extrusion stuff trees and stuff master op is back with another deal this time on the Sennheiser open-back HD v 8x Jubilee headphones these were tuned by Axel Braille of Sennheiser and mass drop
