Backplate EK Water Blocks aluminio níquel

EK-Quantum Vector Strix RX 6800/6900 Backplate - Nickel is a CNC-machined retention backplate made from nickel-plated aluminium that fits all EK-Quantum Vector Strix RX 6800/6900 water blocks. The backplate covers the full length of the graphics card PCB, improves the visual appearance of the build and provides passive cooling for the backside of the voltage regulation module (VRM), VRAM and the GPU core.

Advantages

The nickel-plated aluminium construction offers durability and corrosion resistance while keeping weight low. Full-length coverage enhances PCB rigidity and protects components from mechanical stress. Passive heat spread from the backplate helps reduce temperatures of VRM, VRAM and the GPU rear surface without adding active cooling.

Suitable for

• EK-Quantum Vector Strix RX 6800 and RX 6900 series water-cooled graphics cards
• Users upgrading aesthetics and structural support of their GPU
• Systems where additional passive cooling for VRM/VRAM is required

How to use

Remove the graphics card from the system and detach any existing cooling solution following the manufacturer’s instructions. Align the backplate with the PCB and EK-Quantum Vector Strix RX 6800/6900 water block mounting points. Install the mounting mechanism; the backplate screws are supplied in a separate compartment. Apply the supplied thermal pads to the indicated VRM and VRAM contact areas before final tightening. Reinstall the graphics card into the system and verify secure attachment.

Recommendations

Install the backplate on a powered-off system and follow ESD precautions. Ensure thermal pads are correctly placed and of the appropriate thickness for optimal contact; do not overtighten screws to avoid PCB damage.
