Isulation Backside gpu.

[ThommY]

I'm going to cool my gf4/R9800 with a Mcw50-t thats coold down by a BIX2 and the fans on low/medium speed.
Ive got the same kind of thing running right now but the Mcw50-t is in the same loop as my cpu. Ive got the tiny patch of neopreen on the back of the gpu that was included in the Mcw50-t. Im getting no condensation at all. The backside reads +-18°c.
So now ill be running it in a dedicated loop for the gpu. I will probably get lower temps, but do i need more isulation?
The setup wil be used on a daily base..
Any suggestions, or wil the current isolation work fine?
Thx in advance guy's!
Sorry for my bad englisch

Running the MCW50+T on a seperate loop with a big rad caused no condensation prob's for me whatsoever with factory insulation.

I can't comment on the need for better insulation, but here's a pic of how I've been doing it... this seems to work great. Zero condensation with a vapochill on the other side of the card.

I used a square piece of plexi-glass and seal string around the edges. To fill the air gap between the plexi-glass and the pcb I used a square piece of the foam that comes on the back of most new motherboards (don't know the proper name for it).

This is also nice if you are using a large C-clamp to hold a cooling device to the card. It gives you something to clamp down on without worrying about breaking something on the card.

Wow Lol shortcircuit!
That was my plan to! I'll try that method then.
Thx alot!
