Thanks for this tip. I'll cut the bag in half and install it only on the backside of the card. I have the card in the lowest PCI-slot and beneath it there is only a metal frame from the case. Maybe I'll put the other half of the bag to the bottom of the case.
Edit: Anti-static bag now installed.

I'm not sure putting a 'static bag *over* the card' is such a great idea if that is what it sounds like. It will get too warm and cause some distortion (tried this). Probably only covering the backside of the card is plenty, maybe could do the DSP/DAC also but i dunno if its needed. But dont smother the card. |
