I am going to join the top of the zotac heatsink to a piece of 1/4" aluminum with thermal tape, and hope that this brings some of the heat to the side heatsinks. I'm also going to use thermal tape under the motherboard to help dissipate heat into a large 1/4" bottom plate.
I'm very interested to hear how well essentially extending the CPU heatsink to a larger area works...
Maybe it might be easier to make a custom heatpipe setup to draw away the heat?
