I am building a BTX system using a pico BTX board and a Cooler Master B541 minitower case. I was wondering if any coolers designed for ATX systems would also work in a BTX system. If they would work, I would use one where the fan blows across the heatsink, from front to back, so that airflow would be similar to how BTX was designed. An example of such a cooler would be this one:

I am interested in doing a copper heatsink theme in my system. Also, I will probably eventually upgrade to an Allendale 2.4GHz to be overclocked to 3.2GHz, and so will like to upgrade from my Type II HS I am currently using (on a 1.8GHz Allendale OCed to 2.4GHz).
If I have to I will just upgrade to a Type I HS, but I would like something all copper, and I would like the copper to be visible (as opposed to covered by a shroud as true BTX coolers are).
Thanks for any help!
