See inside your Steam Deck with JSAUX’s $30 clear backplate

JSAUX may sound like simply one other alphabet soup electronics model, nevertheless it’s shortly developed a popularity because the foremost accent vendor for the Steam Deck — and at the moment, it’s introduced what (I’m pretty positive!) is the very first clear shell for the system.

The $30 JSAUX PC0106 Transparent Back Plate for Steam Deck isn’t a full shell, because it simply covers (slash exposes) the rear half of the PC gaming transportable. However that’s not all you get to your 30 bucks. It additionally comes with three units of again buttons, at the least one in all which is taller than the originals for an extended throw. (It’s not clear whether or not they’ll assist with the stiff press, however the picture under offers me hope.)

It additionally has a built-in sq. of aluminum that it claims can act as an prolonged heatsink for the Steam Deck, although I wouldn’t put too a lot inventory in that except you intend to tinker. If you happen to’ve ever opened up a Steam Deck, you’ll know that the factor immediately beneath that square is an electromagnetic interference shield, not direct entry to Valve’s authentic heatsink. A minimum of you’re probably not lacking out on a transparent view of the Steam Deck’s innards due to JSAUX’s alternative to go away that portion opaque as an alternative of clear.

Plus, it comes with an entire set of latest screws and a set of fundamental opening instruments.
