How would I type the command to use the boost? Also, how would I add other sticks to the command?



Vh,  does the new cgminer version include asicboost or is it still in development? Thanks.

Yes.   Add command line option --gekko-newpac-boost, when connecting to a known Overt AB supported pool.
You can run it once with --verbose to look for the midstate messages, but there's not much noticeable difference otherwise unless you have a USB Amp meter to compare before / after.

@100MHz was 2.65W, with AsicBoost measured 2.35W.      (default)
@200MHz was 4.66W, with AsicBoost measured 4.20W.      (fan cooled)
@400MHz was 9.63W, with AsicBoost measured 8.38W.      (out of support zone)
@600MHz was 13.62W, with AsicBoost measured 12.45W.  (damage if fan gets tired zone)
The latest version asic boost is always on. When you don want it, u use --noboost option
