This is a data entry error. The correct clock rate would be 2125 MHz. Thank you for pointing this out.

It is a metal backplate. Unfortunately, I can't answer whether this contributes to passive cooling with heat conducting pads, but due to the rather low consumption/good cooling solution, I would say that this would not have a significant influence on the temperatures.
