Why would she care at all? This is all a test to see if she can control you. If you give in to this, you'll forever be a cuck.

Seems simple to me.

No girl gets between me and my equipment.

Well you can only use a slot blower if it has full-height expansion slots. Just put the components you have in it and see what your temperatures look like. Only bother with adding fans if you actually turn out to have thermal problems.

Fractal went full retard with the lack of vents on the side for GPU exhaust. You can try putting your card in there, but it's probably gonna cook itself.

GPU makers went full retard by making top-down coolers that dump most of their heat straight back into the case.

Open coolers can keep the card cooler and quieter than blowers, they just need good case airflow to do it. If you've got that, there's no reason not to use an open cooler card (outside of maybe SLI/CF setups).
