Is it okay to remove backplate from GPU?

Solution


It is entirely safe.
Many graphics cards run without backplates just fine. Take the reference maxwell cards from Nvidia as an example.
Backplates are just there to prevent accidental damage through factors such as liquid or dust which may damage the PCB.
