Gold Fingers in computer parts

" in computer parts refer to the gold-plated connector edges of circuit boards, such as RAM sticks, graphics cards, and PCIe cards. These gold-plated contacts ensure efficient electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion, allowing seamless communication between components and the motherboard.  

Gold is used because of its excellent conductivity and resistance to oxidation, ensuring long-lasting and reliable connections. However, the gold layer is usually very thin (measured in microns) and applied through electroplating to reduce costs while maintaining performance.  

Are you looking for information on recycling gold from these parts, their manufacturing process, or something else?
