Hi. I currently have a  build with an asus X99 Deluxe ii, 2 Gigabyte GTX1080 Extreme gaming GPU's. The GPU's are very thick (2.5 slots) and I have no place to put my raid card on my mobo. Any suggestions on how to mount my raid card in the case?

Maybe get a PCI ribbon cable? Does it use the PCI 1x slot?
