Question Aircooling throught the PCI Slots

Hey all, hope I am putting this In the rite place. I saw a few PCI Slot Computer Case Fans, and Cooling Fans. Would this be worth my money and would It cool down my GPU/Case all that much?

One may assist the GPU, but an excessive draw with multiple units will take away the air flow from the rest of the system.

Hey, thats you right in the middle of your avatar pic, isn't it? J/K

What kind of fans are you thinking? i use a blower at the bottom of my current case, helps my GPU temp by about 5degrees:

Its an extractor though, i have seen may internal blower cards, but they dont really help much EG:

I just saw a few on Xoxide, and I was thinking of buying one. But my CPU/GPU/Case temp's are high so I wanted to cool them down.
