Okay thanks,  I couldn't find any good pictures of em.  But i mean for 330 i think its a good deal.

This is where I found the image: http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/geforce-gtx-970-sli-review,1.html

So i went to Best Buy today and saw a GTX 970 Reference cooled card for 329.99 still with Arkham Knight.  So obviously I bought it, when I opened it, the card had a backplate.  Do all the reference 970's have backplates?  I didn't think they did.

Geforce

No, I mean the brand of the card itself. EVGA, ASUS, Gigabyte?

Damn, that's pretty sweet tbh. I wouldn't be complaining if I were you... A backplate is good for many things, it dissipates a little heat, and best of all, looks badass as fuck.
