no, not really any room with the Heatsink, it takes up all the room around the CPU.
Well there's your problem. You mentioned LLC has a direct effect on your socket temps, well, higher LLC puts a higher strain on the VRMs. These FX-8xxx really put one hell of a load on the power delivery section of any board. Do whatever you can to at least get some airflow over those VRMs.
