will this tape make condensate?

The reason I'm doing this because on the 965P there are a lot of small thingees ( I belive they are resistors) I'm afraid that one day something can go wrong and block will tilt and shorten some of them out.

But with this tape i'm not shure will it make condensate? (tape will become wet?)




It's an Electrical tape, very melt resistant.

Thnx for your help :)

I dont understand how any condensation would occur... Are your temperatures sub-ambient?
 
This is my first water cooled PC, and i dont think PC ICE will go below 0...

So there wil be no condensation right?


Better be safe than sorry.
 
Standard watercooling, it won't go below ambient temperatures, no condensation.

The only time condensation happens is when your water is running below ambient (like a chiller)
 
If your room is around 76F and relative humidity is around 50-70% (a little average to slighlty lower than normal) condensation will start to form at around objects with less than 14c surface temperatures
 
My post was a mistake. I could not delete it. Don't worry about condensation if your not actively cooling your water temperature below room temperatures (for example: phase change or Peltier).
 
if your using a stnadard radiator, and nothing to cool it below room temperature, you are perfectly fine
 
But then again, if you're not sub-ambient, then you're not [H].
RIGHT GUYS?! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
 
No, with water cooling you can NEVER get below ambient temperatures.

You need phase change cooling or a water chiller to get condensation.

Also, I'd put the tape around the chip's Die, not right on the Waterblock... You dont want to risk it not fitting properly.
