Backplate voor cuplex kryos LGA 1700 van Aqua-Computer (MPN 21500)

The Aqua-Computer backplate for the cuplex kryos LGA 1700 is a metal reinforcement plate designed to be used with the cuplex kryos CPU water block on Intel LGA 1700 socket motherboards. It provides a stable mounting surface on the rear of the motherboard, helps to distribute mounting pressure more evenly across the CPU area and improves mechanical support for heavy cooling assemblies in custom liquid cooling loops for desktop PCs and workstations.

Advantages

This backplate enhances the mechanical stability of the cuplex kryos water block installation and reduces the risk of uneven pressure that can affect contact and thermal performance. The metal construction improves the contact surface and supports secure fastening of mounting hardware, which contributes to consistent thermal transfer and long-term reliability of the cooling assembly. The component is designed specifically for compatibility with the LGA 1700 socket, ensuring a correct fit and alignment with mounting holes.

Suitable for

• Custom liquid cooling loops in desktop PCs
• High-performance workstations using Intel LGA 1700 CPUs
• Systems with large or heavy CPU water blocks requiring reinforced mounting
• Builds where even pressure distribution and mechanical stability are priorities

Key specifications

• Compatibility: Intel LGA 1700 socket
• Material: metal reinforcement plate (metal type per manufacturer)
• Purpose: rear motherboard support for cuplex kryos CPU water block
• Function: improves mounting pressure distribution and mechanical stability
• Application: intended for custom liquid cooling installations in desktop and workstation systems

How to use

Install the backplate on the reverse side of the motherboard aligned with the LGA 1700 mounting holes before fitting the cuplex kryos water block. Ensure the motherboard is placed on a non-conductive, flat surface and that all alignment pins and mounting holes match. Place the backplate, then position the water block on the front side and fasten using the appropriate screws or standoffs supplied with the water block or by Aqua-Computer, tightening in a cross pattern to achieve even pressure. Check for correct seating and avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the motherboard or CPU socket.

Recommendations

Use this backplate in combination with the cuplex kryos water block and the recommended mounting hardware. Follow the motherboard and water block manufacturer instructions for torque and installation sequence. Inspect mounting points periodically after initial use to confirm secure fastening and proper contact; re-tighten mildly if slight loosening occurs after thermal cycling. Avoid modifying the backplate or using incompatible mounting parts that may impair fit or void warranties.
