i bought a new sound card that slots into the PCI slot,and my Video Card thats in the AGP port,now they both fit perfectly,BUT,not at the same time -_-, the video cards big ass fan is stoping the sound card from going in,but only by a small amount,i can force them both in but heres my questions,will they get damaged if their touching?
right now,sound is more important than the graphics,since i dont play games on the pc,and 95% of my computing time is sound related. |

Do u have any other pci card that is not as thick as the sound card? if yes, swap it with ur sound card. I really don't know the answer however.

I do not think it would be a good idea to have them touching. This post has been edited by bobhome: Jun 13 2006, 07:27 AM -------------------- REGARDS
