The chip shortage got me desperate, so I decided to make my own CPU. How hard could it possibly be? Turns out... incredibly hard. Watch me struggle through thousands of wires, burning out components, and questioning my life choices as I try to turn raw copper and silicon into a working computer brain. Will it run Doom? Watch until the end to find out! If you want to see me suffer through more terrible tech ideas, make sure to drop a LIKE and SUBSCRIBE! #TechDIY #CPU #PCGaming #NerdLife #ComputerEngineering

Actual alchemy at that point
The fact that computers are literally rocks we figured out how to put just the right amount of electricity through will never not be amazing.
"Dumb as a rock" suddenly isn't an insult anymore.
How humans found out they could do this will never cease to amaze me.
Wizard explains magic to a layman.
This is how humans tought rocks to think
Looks easy enough. Can you teach us how to make DDR5 RAM next so we can drop the prices on those?
I thought a CPU get made when 2 CPUs love each other so much
If you engrave arcane symbols onto specially made stones, it turns into a golem core. Suddenly doesn’t seem so outlandish…
Actual magic and we take it for granted without a second thought.
Modern computers: we put lightning in rock and made it to math.
Never knew it was that simple..
This is exactly how I made my 1m transistor. Not nanometer, just regular meter.
A CPU is a specific flavor of rock that is highly receptive to magic, that is then enchanted with specific runes that enable it to think.
That went from 2+2 to quantum mechanics real quick.
So simple, why didn't I think of that.
Absolute sorcery
"Honey, where's my chromium-etched photolithographic quartz mask?"
"Get a rock, now turn it into a CPU"
Broooo that's so complicated
