The most prevalent parts made of gold are the contacts.
These are the points where expansion cards, memory sticks or anything else connects to the board or jacks (audio, USB, etc.). These contacts are usually plated, so there are only a few microns of gold per board.
But it may be possible as gold is a super conductor so it is used in making register of processor.

What property of gold makes it useful in computer parts?
to serve as a standard conductor in passing electricity
What karet is computer gold?
It is unknown what karats the gold used in computers are, but it could be considered a negligible amount. They are used in miniscule amounts for tiny computer parts, so even if the karats were worth more, the size would not amount to much value.
What is King Tutankhamun's tomb made of?
goldWhoever constantly leaves the one word answers should be banned. King Tut's outer most coffin is made of wood and is overlaid with gold foil. The second coffin (inside the outer most) is the same. Only the inner most coffin was made of solid gold...approximately 2500 pounds worth of it. That makes it worth roughly 55 million dollars in gold weight alone as this is typed.
What innovation made complicated products easier and cheaper to make?
The innovation was interchangeable parts, which are the precursors to the computer-age term "modular design." The principle was confined to wooden parts for the most part, although the French gunsmith Honore Blanc first designed firearms using standard (though still hand-made) parts in 1788.
When do the computer was made?
ask the computer!
Have they ever made clocks with gold moving parts?
Yes they have made clocks with gold moving parts.
Is there gold in computer parts?
Yes there is gold in computer parts because it is a very good conductor. Only a very small amount is used as it is very expensive
What is 10 carat gold made of?
Gold jewelry is usually made of alloys of metals, and gold alloy is divided into 24 parts. If you have 10 karat gold, that means that you have 10 parts of gold out of 24 parts, or 41.6% pure gold in the total metal.

What is the difference between 9k gold and 18k gold?
Gold is measured in carats. It it made up of 24 carats (parts) altogether. If the jewelery is 9 parts gold and 15 parts other metals, it is 9 carat gold. If it is 18 parts gold and 6 parts other, it is 18 carat gold. The more carats it is, the more valuable it is.
The two main parts of a computer are its hardware and?
Computers have hardware (the parts the computer is made up from) and software (programs)
What material are the gold colored contacts from a pre-1967 computer made of?
gold, and they are still gold today.
What property of gold and copper makes them useful in computer parts?

What is 10 karat gold filled?
gold and something else, usually copper or brass 24 karat gold is pure unrefined gold. Gold is smelted with other minerals to make it harder and stronger, because it wears down fast. !8 karat gold is made of 18 parts gold and 6 parts alloy. 14 karat is 14 parts gold and 10 parts alloy. 10 karat is 10 parts gold and 14 parts alloy. This is used for rings mostly due to it is more resilient to wear and tear. necklaces are made of less strrong metals. usually 14 or 18 karat.
How are computer parts made?
Computer parts are made using different processes depending on the particular part. The purpose of the computer is what will determine the design and the factory will follow the specific design to come up with the computer. Most modules will have a similar basic structure.
