Thanks a lot bro! Got the new Crosshair IV just now from ASUS advanced RMA/fedex overnight.

Apparently I failed to insulate well enough on the last board or maybe it was a leak, but either way........ I don't want to let this happen again. I think I'll use thin strips of electrical tape to keep the dragon skin from seeping under things.

Don't you guys get condensation forming around the edge of where the cpu is making contact with the HS, and then dripping down into the cpu socket? I'm very concerned about this now, because that seems like the most likely place for water to get where it isn't supposed to.

I need some advice...going to be re-insulating later on after I make sure everything is working.

Thanks!
