Abstract
An air shroud includes a main portion, an extension portion, and a first adjustable air baffle. The main portion is in physical communication with one or more cooling fans of an information handling system. The extension portion extends from the main portion. The first adjustable air baffle is in physical communication with the extension portion. The first adjustable air baffle is biased toward an extended position. When a first memory module is located within a first memory slot of an information handling system while the main portion is in physical communication with the one or more cooling fans, the first adjustable air baffle transitions from the extended position to a collapsed position in response to a force being exerted on the first adjustable air baffle by the first memory module.
