I have thought about a silica spray that dries to seal off electronice (comformal spray i think some call it)
anywho tis is simply amasing...it reminds me of the Borg the texture of the silicone gives is a biological look to it...add some color and do more elsewhere...this is great!

Getting the silicone to stick in the first layer was difficult, it mostly was mechanical bond to all the surface shapes. the second layer was a lot easier cause it stick to the base one. It required a third layer to ensure that everithing was properly sealed.
I advice to anyone that wants to try this, that currently is a lot more effective a properly made waterblock, I think that a real success will require a very thin seal coat, something very difficult to do with silicone.
That thing of the conformal spray sounds intresting! Maybe it could be epoxy paint like the one for swimming pools.
About clocks: I didnt try high fsb's, as the chipset is still aircooled, and given the heat in the place, stability was very difficult. My final setup was at 204 *12.5 allowing for very low memory timings.
