yeah, that's what i thought you were talking about..the whole board.
i keep my board pretty cold as well, but still...only the cpu area is covered. seems to be working...but i will eventually plastic dip the whole back and part of the front.

 Plastic dip no problem foam and such no big deal either its the pj that bothers me. Seems depending where you look some say removing no problem and then I see what a pita it is to remove. If could get away without pj I would feel better.

I only have the front cpu covered also.  I doubt there would be any condensation issues...I mean it's below freezing for goodness sake.

A good way to test it is just fill a DICE pot up and let it sit there.  If ice or frost forms on the outside, then you better prep.

PJ is the one step that makes me feel a little more comfortable....no water can get into the socket.  It's really not a big deal.  I've removed it now three times and it's pretty easy.

John, you got at least another 30 boints left in that 480 now that you got your board back with a 980x.  Whats up bro?

Anyone watching HDNET right now.....uncensored....hummm...never knew that.
