Cooling systems that fit RNDP600E?

As promised, the stock heat sink + the Noctua 25mm height fan is ~ 50mm.
Here is the proof:

Note that I measured from the copper plate to the top of the Noctua fan.
The Gelid will NOT fit as at ~50mm, it is already a VERY snug fit. I noticed the Ultra 6 Plus has maybe 1-2mm more, but even then, it is nowhere the needed 59mm of the Gelid.
Also, the RAM is right next to the heat sink. Also there is some type of passive cooling, which I am pretty sure the dimension of the GELID:
Heat Sink with Fan Dimensions (mm): 131 (l) x 123 (w) x 59 (h)
Will not fit. Too high and wide/long.
