How bad is this PCI cable constellation? Do i need to change it?

 

As you see in the pictures, my PCI cable and RGB strip are hanging infront of the lower intake fan wich is getting fresh air to my GPU (rtx 3070). 

 

Is this obstructing the airflow to the GPU much? Do i need to rout them differently?

(I honestly dont want to, I just finished cablemanagement)

I also built a shroud for the fan to get more airflow underneeth my GPU. Do you think it helps much?

Luke Tech Tips did a video about this sort of thing years ago. Long-story-short - cables don't really impact airflow enough for this sort of thing to matter.

He just better make sure to avoid putting stuff in front of the fans, like a bunch of boxes, a santa hat, a snoopy, among other things
