This really isn't a good plan. If you live someplace with low humidity it's a certain death sentence for your card. The rushing air creates static electricity. ZAP!

Even in places where it's humid, you are pushing your luck with a standard vacuum.

P.S. I live where it's dry and I vacuum out my PC from time to time. So I don't practice what I preach. However, if I kill my 'puter, I would finally have an excuse for a new one.
