It's Really tight but it does work

Did you even need another slot?

Edit, it is great to know it can be done!

I know these are two GTX 7800's

My other GTX 650 Ti boost i gave to my brother

Still shows thats the air 240 can have a 5th pcie slot it is extremely tight and there are some cuts that must be made to you gpu's bracket.
