That's odd I was pretty sure I didn't see a backplate when I installed the mobo....but then again I didn't really care about it because I was using the stock cooler.
Anyway thanks again for all the help guys
I'm getting the Zalman 7000/7500 Al/Cu/Al-Cu (whichever one is cheaper) because I'm a bit low on cash.
