I know you said there's no other way of mounting it, but as I've never seen this before, are you absolutely sure you're mounting it correctly? 

At around 7:50 it looks to me you should rotate your backplate 90 degrees (got from your other topics that you have the Dark Rock Pro 3). Otherwise yeah, grind the screw down.

 

HAHA now i fell fucking stupid, you are right it needs to be rotated 90 degrees. thanks for saving me! :D

are you sure you are using the right mounting mechanism?

get a different cooler or grind the screw down
