A clip (10) for securing a heat sink (30) to an electronic device (40) includes a base (12), a pair of handles (16) and a pressing portion (18). The handles extend outwardly from opposite ends of the base. The base defines a slot (14) for receiving a catch (62) of a retention module (60). The slot includes first and second portion (142, 146) and a neck portion (144) therebetween. Upper limits of all three portions are colinear. The first portion has a vertical width greater than that of the second portion. A triangular protrusion (13) at the neck portion renders the vertical width of he neck portion less than that of both the first and second portions. The pressing portion extends inwardly from a top edge of the base. A pair of resilient tabs (242) depends from the pressing portion, for abutting a groove (36) of the heat sink. The catch is initially received in the first portion of the slot, and then moved over the triangular protrusion to the second portion. The tabs are thereby elastically deformed, and the heat sink is secured to the electronic device.
