Even if it was 100% gold. Hell, especially if it was 100% gold. At that point the cheapest and best wiring would be gold and no one would be building houses with copper wire again
Damn. Really? This whole time I thought it was so loved because of it's conductivity. Isn't it used in CPUs? Is that again because of the lack of corrosion? I could see having something not build up like that would be better than the conductivity improvements.
Gold can be drawn into extremely fine wire. That allows for a high connection density between the actual chip and the carrier. Its self-welding properties allow those connections to be made with minimal heat.

electrical conductivity of gold is 70% of copper. gold is plated on electronics to prevent corrosion

I believe silver is more conductive than copper, but it struggles with oxidation too. The best wire would be gold coated silver.
Or gold-pressed latinium. ;)
How about platinum-plated silver? Assuming platinum is more resistant to corrosion that gold
We would all have gold hollow points then.
shhh. smoothbrains. don't hurt their fee fees
Nah. Dude's cool. I never knew that and happy I was corrected.
saying that is the equivalent of a caveman calling you a smooth brain because you cant knapp flint rocks
Unironically proving how retarded you are considering how hard knapping really is.
This really makes me want to play some space engineers or elite dangerous again.
Have a look at starsector it's like mount and blade in space 😁
