After much trial and error, ROG introduced its first devices with liquid metal two years later: the ROG G703 and ROG Mothership. In 2017, our engineering team began to research whether liquid metal was feasible in a laptop. When not handled correctly, it can easily touch a sensitive component and lead to a short, causing damage to the laptop. Liquid metal does have one significant drawback - it is electrically conductive. When compared to ROG laptops cooled with traditional paste, our team saw incredible temperature reductions of around 10☌ on average. A much more thermally efficient TIM, liquid metal conducts 17 times more heat than traditional thermal pastes.
LIQUID METAL INSTALL
Since you can't install a larger heatsink in a smaller laptop, our engineers had to find other ways to push the boundaries of our cooling solution. They need to be as thin and light as possible, while also featuring components more powerful than ever. This basic thermal solution has proven to be effective and reliable for decades, but modern laptops have run into a problem. In the electronics industry, thermal paste consists of non-conductive but thermally efficient compounds that efficiently passes a processor’s waste heat to the heatsink. TIM stands for thermal interface material, the most common of which is thermal paste.
No, we're not talking about Tim the Enchanter. But there's another, unsung hero in the chain of cooling: TIM. Good heatsinks and fans go a long way in dissipating that heat so you can frag your enemies all day long. Every laptop generates heat, thanks to powerful components packed in a portable chassis.
