Epox 9NPA Ultra cooling problem

Just got my RMA mobo back and it has the exact same problem. The left side pin is partially broken and on the first mobo, it popped off and fried the board. Has anyone else had this problem and whats a good aftermarket cooler to fix this. Would rather not rma the 2nd board if I can avoid it.
 
That's why I quit using nforce4 chipset.. ATI and ULI have passive cooling that is quiet, and I did not notice any performance difference in real life use. No, I don't benchmark.. Pretty useless to me..

But, Zalman has a nice passive cooler that may fit. I have seen it replacing the chipset cooler on the Asus A8N-E just fine..
 
I think the pins on the chipset heatsink are just too short and they are under too much stress. Can't believe they didnt even check the mobo before sending out.
