Do all gtx 1080's have the same backplate including the fe ones and the custom ones? I'm gonna order a gtx 1080 fe backplate from this website right here: https://www.mercomods.com/#home so I kinda want confirmation. Also this is gonna be the custom backplate I'm ordering, any opinions.

if its a founders board design then it will be the same regardless of the end manufacture. If its a custom AIB card, then its likely that the mounting points will be different between each different manufacture.

I do like it. I know the Fenrir name is from gaming, but beyond that I dont know much about it personally. i think it was you a month or 2 back who explained it to me a bit in a different post when you were choosing a name for your computer if im not mistaken.

When you get someone who is as passionate about something that inspires them, its hard to forget.
