Backplate EK Water Blocks alluminio nichel

EK-Quantum Vector TUF RTX 3070 Backplate - Nickel is a CNC-machined retention backplate made from nickel-plated aluminium, designed to fit the EK-Quantum Vector TUF RTX 3070 D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi water block. It spans the full length of the graphics card PCB, providing structural support and passive cooling for components on the card's rear side.

Advantages

The nickel-plated aluminium construction offers corrosion resistance and a uniform finish that matches EK Vector TUF components. By covering the PCB lengthwise, the backplate adds rigidity to the graphics card and contributes passive heat dissipation for the VRM area, GPU core backside and VRAM. The package includes the backplate, mounting mechanism and thermal pads required for installation (backplate screws are stored in a separate compartment).

Suitable for

• EK-Quantum Vector TUF RTX 3070 D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi water block users
• PC builders seeking added rear-side cooling and PCB reinforcement
• Custom liquid-cooled NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 systems

Key specifications

• Material: Aluminium with nickel plating
• Compatibility: EK-Quantum Vector TUF RTX 3070 D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi
• Included: Backplate, mounting mechanism, thermal pads (backplate screws in separate compartment)
• Manufacturing: CNC machined

How to use

Align the backplate with the rear of the graphics card PCB and place the supplied thermal pads where required between the backplate and component contact points. Secure the backplate using the provided mounting mechanism and screws (check the separate compartment for the backplate screws). Follow the EK Water Blocks installation guide for torque and sequence to avoid damaging PCB components.

Recommendations

Ensure the graphics card is powered off and removed from the system before installation. Verify compatibility with your EK Vector TUF RTX 3070 water block variant and use the included thermal pads to maintain thermal contact between the backplate and critical components.
