does anyone know if the sound card causes problems when it is stuck between two hot graphics cards and if it gets warm?

Helpful answer
It is quite possible that it will get warm. However, your system should also have appropriate cooling/fans so that the graphics cards do not heat up neighbouring cards in the first place. Otherwise you have a bigger problem than just the heating of the sound card itself.
