This back-plate was made out of CNC aluminum specifically for the purpose of sending out a cooling solution to reviewers pre-launch, as our production back-plate wasn't ready yet. The Production back-plate is stamped steel & pem standoffs and expected to arrive on time for Corei7 official launch (crossing fingers..)
