Kudos to EK for releasing the back plate. This guy surely earns his money...

How stiff is the back plate?
Is it aluminum or steel?
Edit: Asked Eddie, it's steel.

Yep, 2mm thick steel.

I just got my EK Supreme with the black Delrin top today.
I'm going to send it off to Martinm210 for testing so he can include it in his flow rate tool.
And while I'm waiting, I'll order a clear Acrylic top for it, the 775 Backplate, and some of the soon-to-be-released EK mosfet backplates.
About time, only a year after I bought my EK MOSFET blocks.
From what Eddy's told me, backplates for the EK Asus 1, 2, 3, 3a Mosfet blocks should be available by the end of this week.. give or take a few days.
I don't know about the other EK Mosfet blocks, but I'd imagine those will follow..
Some pics of the block with the new mounting plate and plexi top, and 1 pic with delrin top.

And even if it didn't look so great, my order is aready on its way to me.(including the Acrylic Top and a backplate)
The acrylic top is a looker!

I noted that the acrylic top has holes in the side for LEDs.. care to take any action shots of that?
Sure.
Ledholes are about 2mm.

I've got Supermicro boards that lasted longer than one of my marriages!
quick question..
the new mounting stuff for s775 will/ is it included with newer shipments of the ek supreme and if yes any way to tell the difference between old and new without having access to the packaging (i.e. any way to find out if you get it or not if you order online?).
If you buy the Supreme from the EK store, the Supreme comes with the Universal plate by default.
I made a request on my order to substitute the LGA 775 plate for the Universal plate, and managed to get it that way.
But by default, the LGA775 plate and the backplate are seperate items.
i quote, same to me, ordered Supreme and went with universal plate, wrote an e-mail to eddy and got the new plate for free.
very good service!
Hi!
The free 775 mounting plates were for the first buyers of the block.
Because we did not realize sooner the problems with some boards.
If you order in our webshop we could supply you the block with only 775 mounting plate.
EKs are like waterblock pr0n
That clear top looks sharp!
Eddy,
You might want to add a option entry to the EK Supreme blocks listed in your store so people can choose the Universal plate or the 775 plate when they order.
Like how they can choose the barb style..
Also FYI, I sent my EK Supreme block out this morning to Martinm210 so he can perform his flow rate and pressure drop testing on it.
We should have some results from that in about a week or so.
wow the plexi top looks sexy
