Awesome, thanks for the pic, which heatsinks would well for those areas? links to any would be awesome =)

When I was prototyping I just used these ones since I could get them next day.

Two of them are enough to cover all 4 phases.

You can get heatsinks cheaper than that if you don't mind waiting though. I bought these guys as well, and just cut them in half and put both halves on the board.

How important is it to get heatsinks. I realize it's up to the person who is using the devices, but I am getting between 33 and 36+ ghs on my Chilis. How much of an improvement can I expect?
