Throttling?

If a case like this were to become available for it, then that would be your best start for passive heat dissipation, but you would still need at least a minor airflow across it as heatsinks only spread heat, they don't magically make it go away.

The problem with that specialized case is that it would prevent a add-on board from being used since the processor is located on the top of the board. It's too bad that the processor was not located on the bottom of the board, so only a thick thermal pad would be needed to transfer heat to the metal case. A plain metal case could be used rather than a custom machined one, and add-on boards would not be blocked. I have seen boards with the processor on the bottom of the board, but not many. Is there any disadvantage to doing this?
