GPU Backplates JUST GOT AWESOME!

[pgi947]

Just had a little delivery from Portugal, decided I'd show you GPU guys as backplates can be used on either WC setups or with air coolers

 

[Gregster]

Very nice Paul.

That is epic, deserves a game! Message me in CS section and I will send a game over to you!

The surface texture reminds me of the Fortress FT01 I used to have. Very fancy.

Speechless!

I'm on it just now

Yep its cut from matt black acrylic, and the logo is pressed in from coloured gloss plexi.

I'll be fitting them with the GPU blocks either later today or tomorrow morning depending when the last of my orders arrive, I'll update with more (and better!) pics once I'm done

 

[LtMatt]

That looks great pgi.

 

[tommybhoy]

How did you manage that pgi?

Last I looked, the site said they were discontinued.

 

[Diagro]

which cards?

They were only on his store for me to make the purchase etc... not a item he stocks. I originally got in touch with OcUK (stigbourne) to try and get hold of a vector image of the logo, which he promptly provided, then forwarded the image on to Ricardo who created some renders to show me how it looks and then at my request he placed a stock of 2 in his store for me to purchase

which cards?

MSI 7970 OC

 

[Hyburnate]

Those look fab

 

[tommybhoy]

Ah, that explains it.

I only saw them after my OC gave up anyway, while on the search for a solution to OCDVRMBOY-otherwise known as handsome matt.

Don't give up your source though, no matter how they try to bribe you.

Have you thought about selling OCUK Backplates, you could shift quite a few for the Titans.

I've just mentioned this to him in CS, would really give that custom feel to a tech lab card

 

[tommybhoy]

Watch out gibbo, pgi's sourcing skills are snapping at your heels.

 

[Geeman1979]

Looking good Paul.

 

[Zeed]

How much do those cost ??

 

[illuz]

Those are awesome, was wondering when I'd see them show up, been following your build!

For obvious reasons I'll avoid mentioning pricing as its possibly a grey area under the rival companies forum rule. More then an EK backplate, less then an Aquacomputer backplate

Build is about ready for launch, just going to start taking things apart for rebuild
