I owned myself

[stain.]

I recently returned a 965g-ds3 for a 965p-ds3 at Fry's. well, I left the backplate to my HSF on the mobo. is there any way I can build one for cheap/makeshift?

 

[ThreeDee]

go back to fry's and get it ..?

I have seen guys make back plates out of just about anything ...cereal boxes are pretty cheap

Acrylic is he best option really...

I'm looking for fast and cheap... nobody looks at the back of the mobo... That, and I'll need nuts for the bolts.

Go to a local Window Glass shop, they probably have some small scraps of plexiglass they can give you... or you can just dumpster dive for it.

why don't you just call the manufacture of your fan and ask them for a back plate, they are usually pretty good about sending these items for free. good luck.
