I know for a fact that depending on which asus card you got, matrix, or which variant of the dc2 series(di slot, or tri slot card) you can find a waterblock from ekwb with ease.

Recently I bought an Asus R9 280X. I was shopping around afterward and I saw a few cards that have a backplate on the card. It looked really slick and I'd like to find one to add onto my card if I can. Does anyone have any hints or insights into what solutions are out there?

Some places like FrozenCPU where they sell waterblocks, also sell backplates, but you have to check for compatibility.

What country do you live in? That would help us to help you out. ;)

I'd recommend checking FrozenCPU, EKWB, AquaTuning etc and finding a backplate. Amazon also works too :)
