GPU cooler for a PCX 5900?

I mean, do they even exist? I know that there are 5900 coolers out there, but the card I have is like a rearranged 5900, so if the coolers are designed to fit a 5900's components and whatnot, they won't sit well at all on this thing: the GPU is pushed back, the capacitors are way forward, etc. So is there some generic heat sink that just sits on the GPU and has the correct type of connector to sit on this thing? You can kind of get a look at where everything sits right here:

I've searched the net but obviously haven't found anything specially made for it yet. If anyone has some suggestion as to what would work, I'm receptive. Thanks.

Now I know this thing can go higher than I'm taking it right now, but it's running pretty hot, so I'd like to find a _good_ cooler.
