Hay Q not to sure if your doing this or not but its also a good idea when combating bad condensation, to vasilne the PCI and Dimm slots as well.......it normaly saves a lot of issues!!!

Good luck mate

 
Thanks Snipe.  I have been, but I don't do it every session.  I'll have to re-coat everything.  It's been a while since I did the pci-e slots.  The 480's started acting up Wednesday night on the chiller, but I just chalked it up as a few isolated events.  So, the next day I picked up the LN2 and the 480 issue continued.  Wasted LN2 session!!  I finally figured it out, but wasted too much LN2 in the process.  Now 480's are back to normal, but LN2 gone
 
Next time I'll be certain that everything is working properly.

the event is not completely wasted, think of it this way you now have a 5.4ghz OC stable on your 980 and you have found out that there is a possibility for mostier in you PCI slots

Yes, I do like that.  And Vantage CPU stable at that....that's an important distinction. 

push it higher lol you need at lease 6ghz to be anygood :P

...eraser almost everywhere,...

You realize that the eraser has zero insulating properties?  It is not a legit insulator.  If it was, you would see people wrapping their pots with it.  Foam ftw.

yeah, that eraser would be just as cold as the pip...lol. and about just as frosty.

No, I mean eraser on the mobo to protect against condensation.  I'm not going to put foam on the motherboard, lol!  My point was that I have double condensation protection, eraser on top of plastidip.  Don't ask...it just evolved to that point, lol!  But my mobo looks like the millennium falcon....ugly as hell, and fast as, well, you know
 
I planned on running some single card 06/05/03's tonight.  So I fire up my XP disk, no go it's dead!  So I run 06 on Win7, and just as I'm about to break 35k, I hear my pump make a loud noise.....it's dead!  I can't catch a break, lol!
 
I was able to finish this run before the pump went bye bye...
 

Any recommendations on an SSD to run XP on?

Just an fyi, if you are upping the pci-e clock to be able to up the qpi more, don't use an ssd. IIRC high pci/pci-e freq. screws with ssds.

yeah, messing with the pci can make the ssd off at times...i did run across that once in a great while.
 
but xp runs great from and ssd though.
just install the achi drivers and reboot achi mode.
