It's an insulating material (aka plastic) to prevent the exposed PCB of the graphics card from shorting. If you have a backplate technically it isn't required but not everyone has that luxury :D.
So I noticed that as of version 4.50, SpeedFan has added support for the Nuvoton NCT6791D which is used on both the VI and VII Impact boards. I've been fiddling around with it and got it to partially work on my VI Impact and wondering if anyone else has had any luck. :confused: I didn't need to...
I'm curious if there is enough space to fit the Compact Splash, considering it's marginally bigger than the M1.
Dimensions - 290mm (H) x 170mm (W) x 310mm (D)
Does anyone know if the mPCIe combo card from the Maximus V motherboards can be used on the Impact? I'm curious since I have a mSATA SSD lying around and can't find any mSATA to M.2 adapters.
Edit: nevermind the plugs are different
