The EK-Quantum Vector FTW3 RTX 3070 Backplate - Black is a CNC-machined backplate made of black anodized aluminum, designed to fit all EK-Quantum Vector FTW3 RTX 3070 water blocks. The backplate covers the entire length of the graphics card PCB, serves as an aesthetic add-on, and also provides passive cooling for the back of the voltage regulation module (VRM) and the GPU core. Included are the mounting mechanism for the EK-Quantum Vector FTW3 RTX 3070 Backplate - Black (the backplate screws are located on the other side - separate compartment) as well as thermal pads.
