just wondering, does a very lin clear conformal coating on the PCB of the mobo void the warranty? This is for an Ultra-D.

alright, typically the first step in condensation proofing.
You cover up all pins, slots, sockets, and the like. Then you spray the board with a very thin layer of a clear, non conductive lacquer. I was planning on using it as a precautionary measure when i build my chillbox.

He was leaning toward the legibility of the post. I think AG has a pretty good grasp on below ambient cooling.

Once you apply any foreign substance to a motherboard or video card such as conformal coating the warranty is void..
