What Are CPU Chips Made Of?
A ceramic CPU processor is simply the processor from a central processing unit (CPU) of a computer.
It does a lot of important work for the computer to function. Because of this, it requires superb conductivity to function properly.
Precious metals like gold and silver are often used in computers and other high-tech devices. Gold is the third most conductive metal on earth.
The most conductive metals, silver and copper, are very reactive.
In the presence of the slightest amounts of humidity, the chances of these metals oxidizing are very high.
On the other hand, gold conducts electricity very efficiently, can carry small amounts of current and does not tarnish or corrode. Hence, a reasonable choice for ceramic cpu chips.
Gold is often used in printed circuit boards (PCB), computer chips, connectors etc.
Hardened gold has a stable surface, and is very resistant to wear.
This makes it suitable for use in plating edge connectors, and other parts of the ceramic cpu that need to sustain repetitive actions.
Silver is usually used in printed circuit boards, computer chips, keyboard membranes and some capacitors.
Nickel or cobalt is often alloyed with gold and used on CPU chips.
Ceramic CPU processors also contain some amounts of platinum and palladium. Both precious metals.
When these electronic devices go bad or outdated, the precious metals in them like the gold can be recovered.
Ceramic CPU Processor Scrap Value
Stating the value of a ceramic CPU processor is a slightly more complicated task than it seems.
There is no clear answer to the question “what is the value of a ceramic CPU processor?”.
The value a ceramic CPU processor scrap possess depends on two things:
Why you are buying the scrap in the first place, and the particular type of ceramic CPU processor you are looking at.
1. Sentimental Value of Ceramic CPU Processor scrap
Believe it or not, some people are collectors of CPU processors.
The value of their processor to them is sentimental, the pleasure they get from doing it. It is a hobby for them.
These people would have a hard time explaining exactly what it is about old processor chips that they find so interesting and enjoyable.
But for whatever reason, they do. They’re like archeologists of computer history.
2. Precious Metal Value of Ceramic CPU Processor Scrap
If you are interested in the financial side of it, then a ceramic CPU processor scrap is worth the weight of precious metals in it.
The precious metals in ceramic CPU processor include gold, platinum, silver, palladium etc. Let’s focus on the CPU gold.
As discussed earlier, a ceramic CPU processor is the brain of the computer. It contains billions of microscopic transistors, and hundreds of gold-plated pins.
But exactly how much CPU gold is present in each ceramic CPU processor? Let’s explore this further.
How Much CPU Gold Is Found In A Ceramic CPU Processor?
The pins of a ceramic cpu processor are often plated with gold.
Each pin is about 0.305(+,- 0.025)mm long. There are hundreds of gold-plated pins on a ceramic CPU processor.
The precise number depends on the CPU model because some processors have more gold than others.
Usually, the older processors would yield more gold. This is because modern CPU processors use new technology that don’t rely too heavily on gold.
Plus, older processors are larger in size, which then means, they contain more gold within them.
This, together with the gold from the processor’s cap and the printed circuits make up the gold content of the CPU processor.
With the right methods, a significant percentage of this gold can be recovered.
Experts estimate that, on average, you might be able to recover 0.2 grams to 0.7 grams of CPU gold per ceramic CPU processor you scrap.
The following table summarizes the prices of gold at the time of this publication (May 2022).
Gold Prices
So, you get a maximum of 0.7 grams of gold per ceramic CPU processor that you scrap.
That’s a little over $40 worth of gold. It doesn’t sound like a lot of money.
But imagine that you scrapped a thousand ceramic CPU processors. That is going to fetch you about $40000.
Now you get an idea of how much money you could be making here.
It just depends how on how far you are able and willing to go.
Ceramic CPU Processor Scrap Price
At Ceko Sia, we have ceramic CPU processor scrap for sale.
What is our ceramic CPU processor scrap price? This depends on how much scrap processors you are ordering, how you want us to deliver and how urgently you want them.
Recycling is considered environmentally friendly. This is because it prevents hazardous waste, including heavy metals and carcinogens, from entering the atmosphere, landfill or waterways.
While electronics make up only a small fraction of total waste generated, they are far more dangerous.
Recycling this waste does not only put money in your pocket, it also helps keep the environment clean.
Get rich while helping the environment.
