Thermal pad EK Water Blocks Silver 1 pc

EK-Quantum Vector² Trio RTX 3080/90 Backplate - Silver is a CNC-machined aluminum retention backplate with a natural anodized finish that is compatible with EK-Quantum Vector² Trio RTX 3080/90 water blocks. The silver surface is designed to visually match EK's Satin Titanium line while covering the full length of the graphics card PCB. In addition to aesthetic improvement, the backplate provides passive cooling to the GPU core area and the backside of the voltage regulation module (VRM).

Advantages

The aluminum construction and CNC machining ensure a precise fit and durable structure. The natural anodized silver finish resists corrosion and complements other EK components. By spanning the entire PCB length, the backplate offers additional passive heat dissipation for the VRM and GPU back side while also providing a clean, uniform appearance.

Suitable for

• EK-Quantum Vector² Trio RTX 3080/90 water-block installations
• Custom liquid-cooled NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 graphics cards
• Setups where passive VRM and GPU backside cooling is desired
