Could I switch to a back plate?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, basically, it involves removing your motherboard from your case chassis, as the backplate goes behind the mobo. Then, you screw in the HSF on the front. It's sort of a pain in the ass if you're already good to go, but since I was build a new PC (soft of), I had a new mobo and case so I just put it on before securing to the chassis.
