Hello looking for a back plate - I/O Shield

Go to solution Solved by airdeano,

yeah I'm looking for the I/O shield, and also I already contacted MSI and they say they don't handle that? lol so I don't know what more to do been hunting ebay. I thank all for the tips, I will just have to keep looking. 

 

i had the same issue with a EVGA board. i contacted all the shield brokers on

eBay to finally find one and the kicker was EVGA didn't have one and the board

was less than a year-old.. you know it is not a necessary item for operation,

just a "clean up" to the universal I/O standard.

eventually someone will have a relic they've been sitting on and finally, will sell it.

Hello I am trying to find a I/O shield for an msi x58 platinum sli(ms-7522).  I have looked for 2 days on Ebay and Amazon is there any place else I could look? I've sent a couple of emails out to some vendors and nothing yet?  

 

If anyone knows of can help me find one it will be much appreciated thank you  Some pictures of the mother board and the back I/O and what the back I/O would look like if you found one to compare it too thanks again for any help!

To help aid you in your quest, I will say this: Stop looking.

Contact the manufacturer. That's just about the only way. I gave up the one and only time I needed one. You won't find it anywhere else, and if you do, it won't be worth the money. Just my opinion.

 

MSI should have no problem providing it, probably for a good price too.

He's looking for the I/O Shield, not the I/O itself.

 

yeah, i got that, but there is a USA version and export version. just clarifying.

EVGA has the same issues on I/O as they as soo close, but not 100%
