That's why I said one needs to be a little creative.
You can mount a big heatsink on without a problem, just make sure you don't short anything (by using some thermal tape like I said). If you will lose pressure because of the solder points, then cut a bit in the thermal tape for the perfect fit.

I'm not gonna write a step-by-step guide here to cool the backside of a card. I'm sure everyone is able to do it, only use your brains and be creative to handle the "problems" you encounter.
