will there be an aftermarket backing plate available you reckon? really irritates me personally, all the good looks hidden underneath, for me a backing plate is so important if case has a window
I don't think it would do so well on a cheaper motherboard... If I was in MSi's position I would have put in the 6-pin as PCI-e power is notoriously unreliable.
Been interested in one of these since the 750 Ti first appeared for my second PC. And with MSi being my favorite of the three big ones, I guess I have no excuse anymore. ^_^

My point was not that the asus one was good, rather than that the lack of a pci power connector could be an issue with some setups due to the motherboards having inadequate power delivery to the pci slot.

Great little card for the price, and it actually looks the part too! Good review too, loved the enthusiasm. Can't wait to see what else Maxwell will have to offer especially for laptops.
