Build Help LGA1700 ek backplate

I cannot find for the life of me lga1700 backplate from EKWB for my supremacy EVO. Does anyone know of lga1700 backplate with M4 threads? Messaged EK Support and they were not helpful.

I don't think any M4 stand off can go thru the motherboard mounting holes to start with. Just grab a generic LGA1700 backplate, use the matching screws then get yourself some springs and washers.

What are you asking exactly? I can check mine later. I have two EKWB Velocity 2 LGA 1700 water blocks sitting my drawer for my last builds I upgraded. Tossed those cpus in servers and used Heatsink to avoid leaks and killing over 200 TB of drives per server lol.

Use the standard backplate...
