Hello everyone, I just received an Asus Z690 Maximus Extreme motherboard and am unsure about the best card positions. I need to upgrade my GTX 980 TI, add a Creative AE-9 sound card, and install a Samsung 980 Pro. I want to make sure all my VGA components have proper airflow and can run at x16. It’s not something I’m very familiar with, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

It looks like you're new and got caught up in a confusing purchase. Just drop it into the top PCI-X16 slot.
