I have:

Antec 902
Asus X58 P6T Deluxe V2 Mobo
i7 920
ATi 4890
Auzen X-fi Prelude

So my card takes up a shit ton of space and blocks my PCI slots for my sound card. It's in the first PCI-e slot for 16X since I'm only running one VGA.

I can KINDA squeeze it in, but the fan would have zero space/air to cool the card, and it would only be sucking on the sound card. Of course when I bought my stuff, I didn't realize I would run into this kinda problem.

What should I do?
I dont want "good enough" onboard sound. I want better which is why I bought the card in the first place.
