## Abstract

The present application relates to a chip heat dissipating structure, a chip structure, a circuit board and a supercomputing device, and the chip heat dissipating structure includes a metal layer, where the metal layer is covered on the chip. By adding a metal layer on the top of the chip, the heat sink may be soldered onto the metal layer through a solder layer, so that the heat sink is fixed to the top of the chip; the main component of the solder layer is metal tin, and the metal layer has a higher thermal conductivity than an epoxy resin material mounted on a traditional heat sink, thereby solving a problem of the heat dissipation bottleneck of a resin material in the chip, thus improving a heat dissipation effect of the chip and preventing a large amount of heat from damaging the chip.
