BitsPower VG AR9290X backplate for R9 290 / 290X - white [BP-WBPVGAR9290XALS-WH]

This is a backplate for AMD graphics cards series Radeon R9 290 (X) in the reference design. The back plate can only be used in conjunction with a matching cooler Bitspower and is screwed onto the back of the Pixel Accelerator. As this page is typically turned upward and thus highly visible in the housing, a visual upgrade can be very useful here.

In addition to the visual enhancement of the white backplate made of aluminum also offers greater stability. Is effectively prevented so that the one-sided PCB due to tightening of the screws to bend at the mounting of the main cooler and thereby is exposed to constant stress. In addition, the aluminum helps to increased passive cooling the graphics card back.

The backplate is not compatible with the graphics card cooler Original, is not traversed by water, is not intended primarily as a heat sink and can not be used individually. However, it is used without restriction in connection with the coolers of type VG-AR9290X of Bitspower. The screws needed are included. These are longer than the original screws, because they are screwed through the backplate and the PCB with the main cooler.
