Hello,
I have an old xps 410 that I'm getting some upgrades for in a little while. With only one pci express slot for a gpu I'm thinking why not put a pci slot exhaust in under the card to take air off the bottom of it. The ones I see on newegg all look like they point the intake down but they're just on a bracket so one should be able to flip it over in the bracket and get it pulling air off the bottom of the gpu.

It's a stock 410 from 06ish and there isn't an exhaust really, so I am putting a 90mm for an exhaust on the rear. Are those pci exhausts any good for being right under the gpu/any good at all, or would it be better to just get two 90mm exhaust fans with them being over the gpu?
I would also like some thoughts on fan setups for the system if anyone could share.
