I never really tested honestly. I actually didn’t even know this backplate had the thermal stuff when I ordered it. It certainly transfers heat but I don’t know if it actually cools the internals efficiently or not.

Oh I know. It’s just… Impressively hot? 😂

Damn, I can’t unsee that now. 😂

That backplate gets REALLY effing hot. Almost too hot to touch. Like a fresh pop tart. I’m not surprised the plastic takes a beating there TBH.

Welcome! The only thing I didn’t do was actually screw it back in place, but it clipped perfectly so I don’t think there would be any issue using the appropriate screws.
