Fat GFX-fan, which pci-slot for 001 in P4C800-E Deluxe now ?

[roller]

After replacing the graphic-card's fan by a new but bigger one, the first PCI-slot is not usable anymore, where I had the pci card of my 001. So I need to decide a new slot to put it in.
It seems that it would be good not to use the second slot neither, so that the fan is able to suck air better...

Can you guys please tell me which of the last 4 pci-slots is recommended to put the pci-card into ? The mainboard is an ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe.

any tipps for doing it right ?

Hey Roller,
Just drop it down one slot.
I had to move my 001 card when I got a new AGP monitor card. The damn thing only had a heat sink, not a fan (as the pictures and descriptions had shown!!), so it was pretty hot to the touch. Not wanting to possibly damage my 001 card that was directly under it in the first PCI slot, so I just drop it down one, the computer did a new hardware search upon reboot, found it, and everything worked fine.
