Socket A CPU top-down heatsink

For old testing/download PC I would like quiet cooler, something like Thermalright SI-97A:

The cooler must have the top-down airflow, so it cool the hot mosfets and caps near the CPU (they are heated up pretty much) and also it should have at least 92mm fan (for replacement to quiet Noiseblocker fan).
The most problematic part is, that the Soltek SL-KT600-R mainboard have NO HOLES near that CPU socket, so only heatsinks that attach to the ZIF socket are usable. The Zalman CNPS 7000Cu is not usable as well, as many other CPU heatsinks that require these nice installation holes... damn.
So, suggestions? And no, ebay search turned out as no results for Thermalright SI-97A
