I was planning to get the ASUS MAXIMUS II FORMULA with HIS RADEON HD4850 ICEQ4

From what I am judging, when the VGA card is inserted on the first PCI-E slot, it seems that it is covering the "Pin Fin Thermal Module" part where is suppose to dissipate heat to cool down the chipset on the motherboard.

Wouldn't it be heating up the VGA card as well???

Plesae correct me if I am wrong.

I was wondering if the VGA card can be used on the second PCI-E slot instead.
