Does pci riser/extension cords exist?

[topaimz]

I found a site, http://www.mycableshop.ca/ or .com/

This site sells 'risers', that acts like a extension cord for PCI cards.

What I am not sure is, which one I am suppose to purchase.
(64bit, 32bit, etc.)

I have a Asus A8N32-SLi motherboard. http://usa.asus.com/products4.aspx?l1=3&l2=15&l3=0&model=744&modelmenu=1

The slot set up is

PCIe 1x/4x
PCIe 16x
PCI
PCI
PCIe 16x
PCI <--- This slot needs the extension.

This is due to the cooling I have on my VGA cards that occupy both the PCIe 16x slots
and the PCI slot below them.
If I put in my sound card, the flow of air is highly reduced to either one of my VGA cards,
thus severe overheating may occur.

So I need to connect the input of the extension cord to the last PCI slot, and connect the
output of the extension cord to my PCI soundcard, so I can place it on a custom mount
I made on the bottom of my chasis/case.

Can you please advise me, which riser/extension I am suppose to buy?

P.S.
I would also be greatful, if you could leave a comment on which sound card I should purchase. Something that isn't overly expensive (around or less then $100), and has
good quality... Easily said, best product that provides more bang for the buck.
Only soundcard I am familiar with is the Creative brand ones, such as the X-fi series.

Prethanks to the replies/help.

Since you're a gamer, the X-Fi is really the only option right now.

Most consumer level PCI devices are PCI 32-bit devices. Generally, 32-bit devices function just as well in 64-bit slots, but not vice versa of course.

You should check out Adex Electronics (http://www.adexelec.com) for a nice selection of affordable risers and extension board/cables.

So, to be on the safe side, I should buy a 64bit PCI extension, rather then the 32bit rite?

Can you be more specific to what I am suppose to buy and leave a link to the product?

I went on to the site xonik gave me but there are so many different products to choose...
I am not sure which one is for me.

Thanks for the help acid and xonik

Prethanks to other who reply.

Either of the flexible PCI32 extenders, PCI-FLEX-04 or PCIFLEX32 would do.

Yeah, I would just stick with the 32-bit risers. 64-bit slots are for SCSI and other non-consumer-level stuff. You would never see a 64-bit PCI soundcard, for instance.
