Honestly NVIDIA if you are going to make end users pay 800$+ for a video card give it a backplate, for gods sake!
This !!!
It would cost Nvidia maybe $1 per GPU to add a backplate, If people are adding after market EVGA Titan X backplates to their Titan X's and seeing a 1-2'c drop in temps then I do not see why Nvidia didn't add backplates to the Titan X and 980 Ti, Really makes them looks a lot neater.
If NVidia were to add backplates to their cards I hope they do better than the ones on the 980 as they were very cheap and nasty.
Even the thermal pads on the 980 are crap compared to the ones used on the Titan X.
True, I just don't understand it, I know people who have bought the Titan X EVGA metal backplates and they've put the temps down by maybe 1-2'c and helped with memory cooling so why didn't Nvidia just put them on as standard![]()
Because it costs more money.

Probably not people with 4 or them stacked though?

Not really since it's a "blower" type coolerProbably not people with 4 or them stacked though?

This! If you have money for them your probably have the "correct" type of cooling solution anywayWe use EK backplates and waterblocks.![]()
I wonder if this thing will be like the 780 Ti's when they came out in that theyll be about the same as the Titan but cost half.
