You can use a larger fan and a shroud to redirect the air flow, similar to how laptops are cooled.

I'd like to keep the cooling internal, I just have it sitting on a shelve next too other desktops k3s nodes.

I just meant you can have an internal fan that's larger than your heatsink, and a shroud to direct the airflow to it. It requires less vertical space, but more horizontal space.

Oh yeah that makes sense, the board does come with a shroud, my fans just don't have the power to push air through it well.
