1) To install your V1 Tech Custom Graphics Card Backplate, we recommend first removing the graphics
card from your PC.
2) If you opt to use the provided magnets for an easily removable installation, first apply the provided
double-sided tape to one side of the magnets by peeling the protective plastic on the tape and sticking
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.
3) Peel the protective plastic on the other side of the double-sided tape and position the V1 Tech Custom
Graphics Card Backplate directly over the rear of your graphics card (double check to ensure that the
backplate is oriented the correct way by aligning with any SLI or PCIe power cutouts if present. Press
down firmly to secure in place.
Install your graphics card into your system.
3) Peel the protective plastic on the other side of the double-sided tape and position the V1 Tech CustomWith every V1 Tech Addressable RGB Mod Part, we currently include 3 modular methods to power and control your lighting.
Method 1: If you wish to control your V1 Tech RGB component with the included RF remote, simply
connect the SATA RF cable to a SATA power cable from your power supply. Connect the other end of
the SATA RF cable to the LED connector on your V1 Tech RGB component.
Method 1: If you wish to control your V1 Tech RGB component with the included RF remote, simply
Method 2: If you wish to control your V1 Tech RGB component with your motherboard RGB control
software, simply connect the included motherboard 5V cable to an available 3-pin 5V addressable RGB
header* on your motherboard. Connect the other end of the motherboard 5V cable to the LED
connector on your V1 Tech RGB component.
*Note: Please ensure to avoid plugging into a 4-pin 12V non-addressable RGB header, this WILL DAMAGE the LEDs
and could result in damage to your motherboard. Refer to the image below for examples of a 3-pin 5V addressable
RGB header and a 4-pin 12V non-addressable RGB header.
Method 3: If you wish to control your V1 Tech RGB component with the CORSAIR iCUE Software, simply
connect the included CORSAIR iCUE cable to a CORSAIR Commander PRO or Lighting Node PRO.
Connect the other end of the CORSAIR iCUE cable to the LED connector on your V1 Tech RGB
component.

It was a super easy install. Easy to control within icue software after I plugged it into my lighting node pro. It’s lightweight but feels like a premium product. Love the look of it.

worldtradeisadeathmachine on Blank RGB Backplates –
Ordered a blank rgb back-plate in preparation for transferring my system into a new case; but my first package only contained the plastic plate, lacking the argb strip and connecting cables. Contacted customer service, and didn’t realize that replies had somehow been sent to my spam folder. By the time I realized it, I’d already had a replacement shipped. Best customer service I’ve had in a long time. Corrected the issue super fast and sent my replacement with super fast shipping. My second package was perfect and included the argb strip and all connecting cables. Installation was easy and while the magnets are a good idea, you’re better off just using the provided adhesive. The only issue I have with the product is that the edges of the plate don’t have anything to diffuse the light coming from the argb strip; so the plate sends a line of bright light cascading out against your case, which can be frustrating if you have a tempered glass side panel. It also means that if you’re eye level with the plate, you can see each individual led shining through. If I were to give any recommendations from a consumer perspective, I’d say add something around the edges to diffuse the light and lengthen the connector cable at the end of plate. Had to give 5 stars because of the absolutely amazing customer service. If I were grading simply the product, I would probably give it 3 stars.

Hi, thanks for the review! If you can carefully take some sandpaper to the edges, it will create a frosted diffused look making it perfect for what you’re looking for. Let us know if this helps.

Having gone through fitment issues and even a lost (presumably stolen) package, the team at V1 Tech sent out three revisions before I finally was able to fit one in my build. They even let me keep the original one I ordered. After the lost package, I was really bummed out and told them not to worry about it. However, about 2 weeks later I got an email from them saying they sent a new one and it was delivered that day. I walked outside and sure enough it was in my mailbox! The final product has greatly exceeded my expectations, especially when I thought all custom designs were matte. Mine came glossy like I requested and looks absolutely phenomenal. Thanks for the fantastic support!

If it’s been a while since you purchased a custom backplate, it may benefit you to place the order again; as some of the design processes have improved exponentially.
The wiring of RGB Backplates has been re-engineered to a much higher quality standard. Not only “feeling” stronger, but providing direct support for Motherboard 5v RGB headers and Corsair iCUE RGB controllers; in addition to the standard RF SATA design of old.
They have started rounding the corners of the acrylic and providing black painted magnets instead of the silver kind.
But best of all, they use a single, slightly thicker sheet of acrylic and print the design on top instead of sandwiching the printed design in-between two thinner sheets. This not only makes for a sturdier finished product, but showcases the artwork more accurately as it now has a matte finish; allowing better color accuracy and preventing glare.
