Heh.. gotta love twistie-ties! I just cut out a few of the bars since I don't use any PCI cards.. and this is an old case that I don't care about.

Hello 34° C GPU idle @ 400 --> 515Mhz....

That would look a heckofalot better if you had just cut fan wholes and gotten better airflow through the entire case. You would have been just as effective at cooling the card, and you could put grills over the fans and improve the look of your case at the same time.
