Guys I'm looking for two backplates to fit on my two MSI OC 7970's reference cards.

I have HEATKILLER® GPU-X³ 79X0 Ni-Bl Waterblocks fitted but don't really like the Heatkiller backplates.

I would prefer the backplates to be Black in colour.

Will any Backplate work with my heatkiller waterblocks?
 
It might be worth asking this question in the WC section. I'm not sure how compatibility works with backplates and blocks, i mean the holes line up as they're designed for the same PCB its whether the screws are long/short thin/fat.

I would take a punt and assume they would fit.
 
I have the Heatkiller GTX680 backplate and love it, a word to the wise though, EK/Heatkiller are not out of the box compatible, I had to engage some kludging to make the Heatkiller backplate and EK block play nice.
