What material are these baseplates of?

[Mr_BobDobelina]

I'd like to put liquid metal on these GPU's, thus I need to know what kind of material these cooler baseplates are made of.

MSI R9 270x Gaming 2G Twin Frozr IV - https://gyazo.com/34c6f5286a19f0d0627f48b5d32368db
Inno3D GTX1080 iChill x3 - https://gyazo.com/9f0f106a4113e44663cc3ad4588440bd

Thanks in advance,
Bob

Nickel plated copper -99% of gpu baseplates are.

Nickel plated copper -99% of gpu baseplates are.

Does this count for both GPU's? Sure about it?
Don't want to mess up my cooler

Msi 100% sure

Ichill - 99% sure

However

Because liquid metal is 100% conductive you shouldn't really be using it on gpu's at all.

The only scenario youd even consider it is with a custom watercooling block

My advice ?

Use master gel maker nano

Absolutely ideal for gpu use.
