PCI-E 2.0 Slots

Does it matter where you place your GPU in the Asus M5A99X? Because it runs x16 in single mode and x8 x8 in crossfire. So does it mattter where I put my GPU's to get x8 x8? I want to put them as farthest away as I can to get better cooling.

If your MoBo is the ASUS M5A99X EVO AM3+ you only have one option to crossfire x8 x8 - the blue and white PCIex16 slots. the black one is x4.
