      I was thinking of adding on some heat sinks onto the driver chips to help keep things cool. this is how i have done it previously with Rambo and Rumba boards.

      Is this necessary with the DuetWifi?

        The PCB is designed to.provide the majority of the cooling with large areas of copper on the underside. Heatsinks on the top of the stepper drivers chips are unnecessary. If you are running them at quite high power then a fan blowing across the board, especially the underside will help cool it
