GTX470 + EK Acetal/Nickel + EK Backplate

[PiLsY]

Edited bios to increase voltage table max. Max available is 1212mv. All info is in the 470/480 thread on the Nvidia forum.


Regards the backplate - im 99% convinced its just aesthetics. The card itself is stiffer with it on and less succeptible to being deformed if you use a block without standoffs and crank the pressure up. It doesnt get warm in use or anything so it offers no cooling benefit. Perhaps in combination with those koolance thermal packs it could do something, but then given the straight water temps would it be needed or offer any benefit anyway?

Sure does look purdy tho, and who could resist an Autobot for a vid card .
