4890 fan blocked too much?
I have an XFX 4890. One of the sound cards I was considering is PCI, and my mobo only has one pci right below the pcie I'm using. If I use this card it will block almost half of the intake fan on the 4890. The soundcard is 17cm long, someone measured it.
I guess I could move the gfx card, but eventually if I get another one I'll still have the same problem. So will this block the fan too much? Will it affect temps at all? Thanks.

I guess but maby 1-3 degrees at most.
Just curious doesn't the blood rage have a sound card that comes with it...

You should probably move GPU to a lower slot (if you can). To give the GPU more air.
