Abstract
According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a first housing, a heating component in the first housing, a first heat sink and a fan. The first housing includes a first exhaust hole and a second exhaust hole. The first heat sink faces the first exhaust hole. The first heat pipe thermally connects the heating component and the first heat sink. The fan includes a first discharge hole configured to discharge airflow passing the first heat sink and going to the first exhaust hole, and a second discharge hole configured to discharge airflow passing a circumference of the heating component and going to the second exhaust hole.
