Simple test:

turn on your gaming rig, let it reach full operating temperature

Whisk a dozen egg (12) whites until fluffy.

add 400g caster sugar

keep whisking until the sugar has incorporated into the egg white and has become very shiny and stiff.

pour over the GPU, motherboard and cpu.

wait until its cooked and hardens around the critical components.

measure system temps

type "sensors" into your terminal.


There is this stuff in egg whites

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avidin

which is the reason why you're not supposed to eat raw egg whites everyday. One of the few antinutrients in animal products whereas you find them all over vegan foods like spinach.
