white gpu backplate

[Mcthommo]

re building a mod for my sister in law and going fully white build- gpu is a MSI RTX4090 Ventus which is mostly black and silver- any ideas of where or how to get the backplate white without buying new gpu which is out of the question- not too worried about the top of the card being black but any ideas gratefully accepted

Vinyl wrap?
Or spray paint it

 

[freddie64]

Is the back of the case going to be visable?

Mcnumpty's suggestions are the only way, i think.

 

[Mcthommo]

Not thought about vinyl wrap- might see about that.

Try in coldzero site. They do custom back plates as well.

 

[Ch3m1c4L]

Just spray it

White acrylic.

For some reason i thought you was on about the bracket that holds the GPU to the case when you said the top of the card was ok being black.

I would be very careful with whatever you do incase you void the warranty.

Coldzero sells backplates

Coldzero is you place to go - Ricardo makes great products

 

[Mcthommo]

Ohhh i forgot about that

Just check if the backplate gets hot or just warm during load before doing any changes, as it may be helping dissipate heat and not just aesthetic.
Vinyl is the easiest to go back to stock, just make sure it won’t peel any warranty/serial sticker when removed.
Painting would be a step too far for me, personally.
As mentioned before, a replacement seems to be a good/best option.

sell it, then buy a white one :/ not rocket science

not trying to promote anything just incase any mods might think i am. techsource on youtube has a guide for painting gpus i think jayztwocents has a tutorial too if you want a less destructive way you could also try plasti dip since you can peel it off and not have to worry about messing it up as its non destructive

If the back plate has a lot of holes I wouldn't do it. You need to use a scalpel, and it will scratch the original finish. It's also a long process and not worth the ball pain it will cause IMO.

Would have but the ventus is only 4090 that fits in the case

get her a gaming console instead.

Vinyl wrap the glass side panel on the case, then it does not matter what is inside.

Threep- bit draconian
Freddie- she wants to see the glorious interior that has been lovingly done by yours truly- all whited out just the backplate- might message coldzero
