Arctic cooling website has a template and measurements listed about the cooler height. It is on their website.

Should check it out.

Cheers guys but the site makes no mention of the height of the backplate nor the distance it sticks out from the card :S

If it's like the backplate on the AT5, then it sticks out from the back about 1 or 2 inches, and sticks up about half an inch from the top edge of the card.
