Don't see why he wouldn't. You just remove the Xeon backplates that are there and replace them with the stock b/p for the blocks.

Only reason I asked was because I am doing a water cooling build and my waterblock didn't come with a back plate which made me think 2 things: Either they are not very essential/don't affect performance etc. OR the company is trying to make more money buy selling them separately. I didn't fancy buying their one so I took the stock AMD backplate and drilled through it so the screws would fit.

of course

supreme HF comes with a backplate

i didnt use mine on my system, i used a xeon backplate with some button head m3 bolts for a cleaner look

this sr2 build had the xeon backplates removed and the stock 1366 backplates attached to make fitting the waterblocks possible

Read your great build log yesterday then saw someone's dream system that looked remarkably similar (in the US):

Thought you'd like to see it.

Am I right to say the loop goes like this?

Res=>Pump=>360Rad=>CPU1=>CPU2>120Rad=>GFX1=>GFX2?

and it cools it all fine?

shrek2 · 20 Jan 2011 at 11:50

Any more pics hilders?

Monsterous! Great example of what can be done, when you have the $$$!

buttkinz · 1 Feb 2011 at 00:58

Can I ask RJ what made you pick the black ice stealth rad? Also what fan did you fit as it an insane fpi? Just wondering as I got the 360 version and am wondering if I did tue right thing with it having 30fpi and needing noisy fans.

rjk · 3 Feb 2011 at 09:27

yeah you need fast fans for it.

it was specced as it fit the 120 fan mount on the back of the case easily.

the system was specced by NathWraith.

What fans did you use? Are they noisy?

I have this case with the 360 rad in the same place. How much of a difference would it make giving that my rad is upsidedown to yours, so my entry and exit ports are at the top of the case and not the bottom?

Thanks
