just some thought.. i guess the heatpad on the rear of the board may not do
anything to avoid condensation, as it is a good way off where the real cold is.
think of how the setup would be:

on top you have the evaporator of the prommi, below that maybe the ihs of
an old chip or some other means of stopping the evap from tilting on the tiny
dothan die, thus chipping it. then the chip itself, after that the adaptor.
up to this point it's more or less a "regular" prometeia install. BUT the adaptor
has a socketlike thing on it's bottom that fits onto the actual real socket of
the board.

what i'm trying to say is that you have a huge area of air underneath the
adaptor that needs taking care of before thinking about insulating the actual
rear of the board. if you don't insulate up there, like hipro did, you may not
need to put anything on the back of the board. overall you have about an
additional 0.8-1.0 cm of material (adaptor) between the backside of the mb
and the evap head.

this is just a thought. may not mean much, but might be worth thinking
about
