    dominickbuff welcome to SevenForums.

    No the back plate only serves a mostly cosmetic role. If you never clean the dust build up and it got heavy enough (shame on you) then maybe.....maybe it could prevent a short. Otherwise they just look cool !

    First you`d have to post a link to your card we are not magicians :)

    But anywho, you go to the manufacturers website and see if they have one or just google it. The Black is almost 2 years old already.

    Nvidia GTX Titan Black launched, set to be new performance king | bit-tech.net


    Example

    Amazon.com: EVGA GTX TITAN Backplate 100-BP-3790-B9: Computers & Accessories

    I`m sure someone made one for it, just google it.

    EVGA doesn`t even list the black anymore, so good luck.

    Read the last link I posted in reply #4

    Also post a thread at the EVGA forums, apparently they made them.

    Yep, they sell for $20 when you buy a new card, personally I think a card looks terrible without a back plate.
