    Your prolly just fine with your enzo setup.

    however im having something very strange going on. when i first put the heatsink on i just put it on bare and all was good. i then dug up some silicone pads and placed them between the heatsink and the vregs, and well it started acting up, crashing etc.. i thought hmm? is the silicone thermal pads electrically conductive? so I removed the pads and placed the heatsink on bare once again and all is well, no crashing. I then pulled it of and placed a very very small amount of white silicone paste on top of each mosfet then replaced the heatsink, and bam crashing again!!! So wtf? I pulled it off once again cleaned all the thermal paste off, and replace the heatsink, and then compleatly stable once again..

    Weird Huh?

    I guess i'll try something non-silicone based like ceramique next...
