Probably a stupid question, but this is my first build and my ASUS Sabertooth 990fx R.2 has 4 PCIe x16 slots which two of them are crossfire compatible. I'm only using one GPU, so I was wondering if I could put my gpu in the seconds slot instead of up the top because my gpu would cover the PCIe x1 slot which I want to use for my soundcard and I also don't want the gpu above my soundcard because the heat from the gpu will be sent down to it.

Check you Motherboard manual for the bus speed, as long as it is another 16 slot, you should be fine.
