The part you need to cool down is on the other side, where the big heatsinks reside.
One more time, extending mosfets wont cost you those 1% ratings at all. First you've got wires sticking out of your PSU to plug your hardware... are those throwing out the reliability ?
If you're not sure about your soldering skills try to find someone who's got a *electronics* (that means, small) iron and a steady hand.

actually.. it may be a EMI shield AND heatsink.. cause on one side you can see the black thing sandwiched between the aluminum and copper... on the other side of the aluminum there is a mosfet attached. (probably for the standby rails or something)
ive done several Vmods before.. which are way more intricate... its just that there are so many little riser boards n stuff that were put on AFTER the mosfets were installed. it would probably take me several hours just to dismantle the damn thing =)
your explanation about how the cables comming out of the psu are about the same as extending the mosfets makes good sense to me. id just rather use the existing heatsink network goin on in there to attach a block to.
