the tape directly to the magnet. Place the magnets onto the tallest screws* on the back of your graphics
card with the tape facing away from the graphics card.
If a semi-permanent installation is desired, apply the provided double-sided tape directly to the tallest
screws* on the back of your graphics card.
*Note: Ensure that as much surface area is covered as possible, start with the far corners of the graphics card and
evenly distribute magnets/adhesive as you work inward to ensure that as much surface area is covered as possible for
a secure installation.

false on Spectrum RGB Backplate –
Make sure if you want a completely custom backplate to choose the custom design option, and to not choose “EVGA” and then customize from there, like I did. I received the custom text as I expected, which looked great, but my first backplate came with the standard spectrum background and not the pure black like I had described. After some back and forth with V1 Tech, they sent me replacements for both my GPU Bracket and GPU backplate. I have bought a lot of stuff from V1 tech throughout the years so I am chalking some of this up just to them being a growing company, that still does the right thing at the end of the day.

alexmdelong on Custom Design Backplate –
everything came out really nice and helped me complete the theme however i do wish the entire text was illuminated better the ” gotta catch em all ” is pretty dim , if i knew this would be the case i definitely would have went with just the Pokemon text. I was surprised when no adhesive magnets came with my order , so i ran to hobby lobby and got some for 6$ ( i dont know if they are supposed to come with it honestly)
Found these guys from kristopher yee’s youtube channel and would still definitely recommend the product.

bcloudj256 on Custom Design Backplate –
I ordered the custom design with text lighting. Due to a lack of explanation on what areas are less likely to shine. Part of my design just shows up blank. Though that’s an oversight on my part, but an email from the designer would have been a nice customer service on the company part. The issue I have is that the cable giving to me for the icue does not work right and after roughly a week of explaining they said they will mail me new cables. Well its has been over a week and I have not heard from the company at all or received new cables.
The only reason I gave them 3 stars is because a friend order a custom backplate at roughly the same time and I see how nice their work can look. Unfortunately I received poor service and a lack luster backplate.
Edit:
V1tech reached out to me explaining there was an error with my shipment replacement. This was after my initial review. Errors happens, and I understand perfectly. Once the error was corrected and the miss communication. V1tech customer service was excellent and vary helpful. They even offer to take a look at my design and the lighting. As I mention the design was an over site on my part, and the lighting didn’t fully illuminate the bottom portion of the design well; especially the bottom text portion. I attached an image, and the camera can pick up a little bit more lighting on the “Fixation” portion of the board compared to the naked eye. Nothing on the fault of V1tech, because it’s my design, but mention to help future customer plan their designs better. When I upgrade my graphics card, I will differently be looking for a new customizable backplate from V1tech. I have changed my review from a 3 stars to 5 stars. V1tech did a great job working with me with my icue cabling/rgb strip issue for the backplate lighting.

dtaylor1985 on Primordial Space RGB Backplate –
This may have just been an oversight on my part as I was browsing through the different backplates, but I settled on the Primordial Space one because I loved the look of the image. I just got it and installed it and while I do love it, my main slight disappointment is that there are no spots on the image where the rgb can shine through, it’s only on the edge. When I look at some of the other space backplates, it looks like there are spots where the light can show through and I’d love to have that on mine. Other than that I love this thing!
I also had a slight issue with connecting it to my Corsair Node Pro, no matter what I set through iCue, it was only showing solid white. Not sure if this was an iCue issue or a Node Pro issue, but I changed to the rf remote and it works beautifully, so not a big deal to me.
