    Prometia question to owners

    I would like to know if you have or have not placed dielectric grease in the socket of your mobo to protect against condensation ?

    I do not have any yet and I am trying to locate some, I just want to know if I can get away without using it or not ...


    thanks

    Just got my prometia and I did use some dieelectric grease. You can get it at any automotive parts store. Its also known as tuneup grease.

    What he said...can be used for both.

    Well it is no use now, the damn shop I bought the prommie from sent me it ( full intel system in black) with no damn CPU kit ( seal string, back plate, foam....)

    I am not a happy camper right now...

    WHEN ARE THESE STUPID COMPUTER SALES PEOPLE EVER GOING TO GET AN ORDER RIGHT ?

    Is it too much to ask to check the delevery BEFORE it leaves the shop, I laid out over £ 600 and this is the level of service that you get in the UK.... flipping morons

    Don't purchase anything from http://www.theoverclockingstore.co.uk/

    They obviously have thier heads up thier asses, becuase they just lost a good customer and I have a good mind to pack it all back up and send it to them and get a full refund including shipping back and forth

    I will take my business to some place that actually gives a toss about their customers...

    there my rant is over.
