Backpanel for Micro-ATX PC Cases, DimasTech S0022GB, 5 Expansion Slots, Graphite Black

DimasTech S0022GB is a replacement backpanel for Micro-ATX PC cases with five expansion slots, finished in graphite black. It restores the rear I/O area and expansion slot covers, allowing PCI and PCIe cards to be correctly mounted and aligned. The panel provides standard slot spacing and ventilation openings to help maintain airflow at the rear of the chassis and ensure external ports remain accessible after repairs or custom modifications.

Advantages

This backpanel is manufactured to match common Micro-ATX slot spacing and includes five full-height expansion slot covers for standard add-in cards. The graphite black finish provides a neutral appearance that blends with many PC case interiors. It secures expansion cards to the chassis and helps preserve chassis alignment, preventing rattles and ensuring stable connector positions for reliable port access. The metal construction contributes to structural support and passive EMI shielding at the rear of the system.

Suitable for

• Repairing or replacing a damaged rear backpanel on a Micro-ATX desktop case
• Custom PC builds where a spare or different-coloured backpanel is required
• Installing PCI or PCIe expansion cards such as GPUs, network adapters or sound cards
• Maintaining rear chassis ventilation and correct port alignment after modifications

Key specifications

• Form factor compatibility: Micro-ATX rear I/O with five expansion slots
• Number of expansion slots: 5 (full-height)
• Finish: graphite black
• Material: metal construction for structural support and grounding
• Mounting: standard case screw alignment and slot retention design

How to use

Power down the PC and disconnect all cables before beginning. Remove the case side panels to access the interior and locate the existing rear backpanel. Unscrew and remove the damaged or unwanted panel, taking care to release any retained slot covers and ensure no components are obstructing removal. Align the replacement backpanel so the expansion slot openings and rear I/O cutouts match the motherboard and card positions, then secure it to the chassis with the appropriate screws. Reinstall expansion cards, tighten card retention screws, replace the side panels and reconnect cables. Verify that external ports and card connectors are properly aligned and that the chassis is stable.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate-sized screws and avoid over-tightening to prevent thread damage. Ensure proper grounding by confirming metal-to-metal contact between the backpanel and chassis. When installing high-profile expansion cards, verify there is sufficient clearance and support to prevent strain on the motherboard connectors.
