Soundcard into pci-e 4 slot

Hi I recently got two cards in xfire and now the pci slots on my mobo are obscured.

The only slot that is now accessible is a pci-e x4 slot.

Would this sound card fit into that slot ok?

Tried onboard sound but it sounds terrible compared to my now useless pci xtreme gamer card.

Cheers.

If your extreme gamer is the half-hight version you can get a converter.

They're around £10-15 on the net, should be cheaper than getting a new card.

Will work in any pcie slot, ive had my asus xonar dx in both a x16 and the x4 pcie port, also due to using multiple gpu's.
