Abstract
A VGA card assembly includes a VGA card (90) having a heat-generating electronic component (94) mounted thereon and a heat dissipating device thermally connecting with the electronic component. The assembly includes a flow director (50) defining a receiving room (57) therein. A thermal module (10) is received in the receiving room. A bottom of the thermal module contacts with the heat-generating electronic component. A cover (80) is movably mounted on the flow director to cover the thermal module in the flow director. The cover is capable of rotating or sliding relative to the flow director to facilitate open or close of the receiving room. When the receiving room is opened, the thermal module is exposed.
Claims20
A VGA card assembly comprising:
- a VGA card having a heat-generating electronic component mounted thereon;
- a heat dissipating device mounted on the VGA card, comprising:
- a flow director defining a receiving room therein, the flow director comprising a fan carrier having a fan therein;
- a thermal module received in the receiving room of the flow director and in thermal connection with the heat-generating electronic component;
- a mounting bracket mounted on the VGA card and received in the receiving room of the flow director, the thermal module being mounted on the mounting bracket;
- and
- a cover movably mounted on the flow director to selectively open and cover the thermal module in the flow director, wherein the cover can be moved between an opened position and a closed position, in the opened position, the thermal module being exposed, in the closed position, the thermal module being enclosed.
A VGA card assembly comprising:
- a VGA card having a graphics processing unit (GPU) thereon;
- a heat dissipation device mounted on the VGA card and thermally connecting with the GPU;
- a housing mounted to the VGA card and enclosing the GPU and the heat dissipation device therein, wherein the housing has a top wall defining an opening above the heat dissipation device and a cover which is mounted on the housing, and wherein after the cover being mounted on the housing, the cover is movable between an opened position and a closed position, in the closed position, the opening being closed, and in the opened position, the opening being opened.
