Cooling apparatus for electronic systems and computer systems with such apparatus

摘要

Cooling apparatus for electronic systems and a computer system with such apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus dissipates heat from circuit boards of such systems to the surroundings, thus effectively cooling the circuit boards. The cooling apparatus has a cooling unit, having a board seat defined in its bottom and side walls and seating a circuit board in the seat. A fan is exteriorly seated on the unit at a position opposite to the board seat. An air passage extends from the fan to the board seat, thus dissipating heat from the circuit board to the surroundings using air. Such a cooling unit is detachably set in the main body of a computer system with both a central processing board being seated in the board seat of the unit and a system board being set in the main body.
