9700pro - aluminum plate fell off
Any actual purpose to the aluminum plate? It looked like it was just glued on to the card or rather a couple of rubber grommets. thanks.

yes, it prevents the delicate core from being crushed
I believe it was put there are partner manufacturer's request to help disipate ( does that have 1 or 2 s's?) heat from the group of large capacitors on the other side of it.
If it hadn't "fallen off" I'm sure you'd have noticed that it actually got "quite hot".
It may not be absolutely vital but it was put there for a reason so my suggestion would be to put it back.
It is your choice of course!! 8)

Its a heat sink for the mem voltage regulator you definetly need to get it back on and functional.
