.....and just when you think your finished....dont really think the Active Backplate is necessary w 10/12G VRAM as no chips on the other side of the PCB.....but I have noticed even under water at full load my backplate gets pretty warm...I dont think there is enough room between large M.2_1 Passive Cooler below CPU though....need to see a review of Vector vs Vector 2 ;)

Nice, that is going to be awesome addition to your setup!

Have to let me know how that goes.

No my current Vector Block is straight nickel backplate.....Im not completely convinced the Active Backplate is really necessary....we'll see....as you said pretty pricey .....maybe if I sell my current Dominator RAM then put it towards new GPU Block.....still would like to see comparisons Vector vs Vector 2....if an improvement in temps likely very minimal as in 2c ....guess it really is about aesthetics.
 
Take some good benchmarks of that as it would great to see that difference.

One of my buddies has the active backplate, I should get him to run some test to see the difference (won’t be apples to apples as his custom WC is crazy) but still interesting.

^^^^ If you loop PR or Heaven or Super Position just touch your backplate....it surprised me (sort of) how warm it gets vs previous 1080Ti.....obviously a heck of a lot more power though.
 
Ohh I know, it gets very warm, my hot spot when I’m stressing it get to 80C,

The rest of the sensors are pretty low.
