|
|
HI - bit of a newbie in this CPU and chip collection game but already an addict.... like techno-crack.
Anyway - seen a number of items on eBay advertised fro "gold recover" - question - how do you recover the gold from old chips? I imagine it is not easy? Just some small info would be great. |

It involves serious chemicals and can produce toxic fumes.
It's not something to play around with unless you understand
safety procedures for you, your family, your neighbors and
the environment.

That last picture makes me cringe.......
I hate seeing CPU's dissolved down for their gold. It almost seems like sacrilege. |
