Hey guys,
As some of you know, I've been having some issues with my non-conformal'd P5Q-PRO. I'm going to be buying some conformal today to finally conformal my P5Q-PRO in hopes that it eliminates my moisture issues completely. I've been told it will...
I would like opinions from those of you who have conformaled a motherboard before. I would love it if you could give me some opinions on how well I've taped off my board, and what else I need to tape off.
So far I have taped off: All of the PCI and PCIe slots, all three of the board's heatsinks, the ram slots, the motherboard power connectors, the motherboard front panel connectors. I have NOT taped off the fan headers. Do these need to be taped off?
I've taped off the whole board, though I probably don't plan on doing the whole thing, I'm just doing it to be safe.
Here's a picture. What do you think?
I'd also love to have opinions because I plan on conformaling my other motherboards as well for the benching party (my regular P5Q, my UD5P, my UD4).
I'd take off the north and southbridge heatsinks but they are the "push pin" design.
Thanks!
