Mach II ST, problems :/

[Bourreau]

Hello,

first, excuse me for my english, i am french

Last week, i have installed a Mach II ST on my P4 3.2E.

But i have a problem. If I don't put enough seal, i have problems of condensation.

If I put more seal, I have probles with temps : -15°c idle and more than 20°c in ful load.

When I have just a little steal, i have 4250MHz @1.6V @-20°c (idle) / -8°c (full load).

What can I do please ?

If you wantto see how I put seal :

Thanks for your help

Edit : Today, i had another problem. The colling unit starts, but doesn't make any ice. When i take the evapo in had, i don't feel anything.

The Mach's fan turns, but the compressor seems not work

Someone have an idea ?

if i were you mate i would start by putting dielectric grease in the cpu socket and on the back of the mobo .then i would use more washers when i install the head wich will get you better contact between the evap head and the cpu ,should do it

Someone told me to do that. I will try it i think. Do you have done it ? Do you have pictures of your installation, to see how i must put the grease ?

Thant you very much

there are some pretty good anti-condensations guides here

www.octools.com

imo some are a bit overkill, tune it to your prefreance or at least until that water disappears..

did any of the hardware survive btw? never seen so much water

Do you have an idea about why it don't work today, about what is wrong ?
