Abstract
An information handling system having a heat exchanger positioned near and in thermally-conductive conduct with an electrical, heat-generating component of the information handling system, such as a central processing unit or graphics processing unit. A fan directs air across the heat exchanger to cool the electrical component by convection. A first portion of the heat pipe may be in direct physical contact with the electrical component and a second portion of the heat pipe may be in thermal contact with the electrical component and the first portion and in direct physical contact with an additional heat exchanger. The fan may direct air across both heat exchangers to cool the electrical component.
