I currently only have one video card (GTX280 with Koolance waterblock) in the top blue PCI-X x16 slot which will not allow me to use the white PCI-X x1 slot because of the dual slot backplate on the videocard. Will the video card still be in a x16 slot if I move it down to the next blue slot..

Cheers
I would leave the videocard where it is & plug the Xonar in the bottom white slot..
