terrahash, do the modular boards ship with heatsinks?
This is all I want to know, have been waiting since Friday just to hear a yes/no. This is going to be critical info so I hope we can find out today.
Why is this so critical?
Heat sinks are cheap and easy to add. If they don't include heat sinks will you not place an order?
I was under the impression that these would require a custom fit heatsink, not one you could just grab off the shelf. If it's the former then I would, at the very least, need to research a source/price/availability on the heatsink and that may delay my order, which in turn may lead to waiting on another company. If it's the latter then you're right, it doesn't really matter.
Either way, at the price we will be paying for these I will be slightly disappointed if that doesn't include something as cheap as a heatsink, even if I have to screw it on myself.
Well when you look at the photo of the board, a simple square heat sink that could cover all four chips with a hole drilled in the middle with a single screw should work really well. Just don't over tighten it and you should be fine
