1. A power supply module for a computer comprising;

  • a generally planar pc board having a first side and a second side;

    heat generating electrical components disposed on the first side of the board;

    a magnetic induction device having a fist side and a second side, the first side of the magnetic induction device attached to the second side of the board;

    a plurality or thermal vias through the board arranged substantially perpendicular to the plane of the board, the vias thermally couple the heat generating electrical components to the first side of the magnetic induction device; and

    a heat sink thermally connected to the second side of the magnetic induction device, wherein heat flows substantially perpendicular to the plane of the board from the heat generating electrical components on the first side of the board, through the thermal vias to the second side of the board, into the first side of the magnetic induction device, and out the second side of the magnetic induction device to the heat sink.
