So I saw this video on youtube: 

 

I'm not sure what were the stock cooler temps but that looks cool. Period.

The title is a little strange. And this method is ok, but the vram won't be cooled. And besides, the cooler probably hits the motherboard when the Gpu is installed.

Forget the motherboard, it'd hit the bottom of a case/PSU in most cases.

 

Although CPU coolers on graphics cards do exist in form of liquid AIOs.

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

At that weight the GPU bending would be a hell lot worse creating a serious strain on the PCIe slot and the connector. Unless you supported it then that would work but in my opinion it would look pretty hideous.
