Msi Rx 470 Gaming X Gpu Backplate (Layout 2)

Welcome to our new generation of Gpu Backplates. For so long we've been making these using screws as the only mounting mechanism option, but that is now changing.

From now on, we will have two fixing methods/mechanisms to choose from, screws and magnets, because ultimately it's you, the costumer, who should decide what fits you best, and not what we consider to be the best for you.

Like before, our backplates are uv printed. It's a high-end process in which the images/logos/text are printed directly on the surface of the backplate. This technique will give you the best quality possible that simply cannot be reproduced with inlaying or dual layered backplates.

Our backplates are fully customizable, so you can change any of the following parts:

- Backplate main body color (sometimes customers prefer to have it in white)

- Keep or remove the Hexx holes.

- The "Msi Shield" Color 

- The "RX" Letters Color

- The Model Number "470" Text Color

- The "Gaming" Text Color

- The "X" Text Color

*** Please keep in mind that customization of the backplate will add a lead time of 1~2 business days ***

Backplate compatibility:
Model name:

Msi Rx 470 Gaming X 8GB

Msi Rx 470 Gaming X 4GB

By default our backplates are only compatible with the stock cooler. If you require a backplate compatible with a gpu waterblock, please add a note on the "Customization Notes" field above.

Backplates are made with 3mm Matt Black Plexiglass.

Package includes: Backplate and mouting mechanism (either screws and spacers or magnets, depending on your choice)

Keep in mind that improper installation of the magnetic version can lead to short-circuit of your card. So we recomend that you power down your system before installing the backplate. Make sure that the magnets are only touching the screws heads and not any card components before powering your system back up.

Frequently Asked Questions:

- With magnets - NO.
- With Screws - NO. 

Does it include screws / magnets needed to assemble the backplate?
