Crossfire in a tiny Case?

[draconwme]

this is my first post here so this may be in the wrong place.

 

I am planning on building a Crossfire build, but want to put it in a really small, budget case. I really like Rosewill's SRM-01, but i am worried that i may hurt the cards if i put them in this. I will not be able to water cool the cards, so I'm relying on the stock coolers. I'm using the Asus Strix coolers on my cards. Is this a bad idea? Any help will be appreciated.

Get at least a Corsair air 240

that's way out of my budget. do you think that putting the cards in a normal upright case like the SRM-01 would hurt the cards?

Yeah, the fans on the bottom card would probably scrape against the bottom of the case and they'd run at really high temps. The Corsair SPEC-01 is $50ish and is a little bigger if you don't mind that.

 

But seriously how do you have the money to crossfire and  not get a good case? What cards are you crossfiring?

why do you want crossfire if you're on such a tight budget?

You shouldnt be crossfiring on such a low budget.
