Backplate EK Water Blocks Aluminium Grey

EK-Quantum Vector² Trio RTX 3070 Ti Backplate - Nickel is a CNC-machined retention backplate made from nickel-plated aluminium, designed to pair with the EK-Quantum Vector² Trio RTX 3070 Ti D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi water block. The backplate runs the full length of the graphics card PCB, offering a clean visual finish while providing structural support and passive cooling to the card's rear components.

Advantages

The aluminium backplate offers full-length coverage of the PCB, improving the card's rigidity and protecting components from mechanical stress. Nickel plating provides a consistent metallic finish that matches compatible EK Vector² nickel water blocks. In addition to aesthetic improvement, the backplate contributes to passive heat dissipation for the VRM area and the GPU backside.

Suitable for

• EK-Quantum Vector² Trio RTX 3070 Ti D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi water block users
• PC builders seeking improved GPU rear protection and support
• Systems where passive VRM and GPU backside cooling is desired
