This back plate is manufactured from massive aluminum and can be mounted in addition to a kryographics Hawaii R9 290X/290 water block, giving additional heat dissipation and stability especially in the voltage regulator area of the graphics card. The back plate is anodized in black color and has direct contact to the VRM modules on the back side of the graphics card. For optimum heat dissipation, the back plate is connected to the water cooling system by a heaatpipe. The back plate comes with a connection terminal that replaces the terminal originally installed to the kryographics water blocks.

Please note:
Graphics card and kryographics water block are not included in delivery, please order separately. With some mainboards it can be possible that connector blocks (e.g. sound) or the locking mechanism of the RAM modules extend into the area of the backplate. In such a case the backplate can not be used without modifications.
