Using GTX 280 for Physx via a PCiE Flexi Riser card?

Hey Guys.

Just Recieved my GTX 580 from Overclockers and appears to be doing well, however I am unable to attach my GTX 280 to my mobo to use as a physx processing card, there is just not enough clearence around the 2nd slot (In the way of the 580's fans) and the 3rd slot (Power supply in the way)

Would using a flexible riser extension give any issues?

Just as a reminder, there is no room at all to put the GTX 280 at all without a flexi riser regardless of which order I put the graphics cards.

Cheers!

Rob.
 
Sorry to ask you an offtopic question straight away but how do you go about using the 260 dedicated for PhysX?
 
Its hardly worth doing, but aslong as the card has atleast a 4x PCI-e 1.x or equivalent speed it would be ok.
