Abstract

A heat transfer device for use with a retention assembly is herein disclosed. The retention assembly is mounted over one or more connectors attached to a circuit board. The retention assembly houses one or more processor modules that mount into the connectors. The processor modules include a heat transfer device. The heat transfer device has a pair of rail guides that cover the outer edges of the processor module. The rail guides enable the processor module to slide in and out of the retention assembly thereby enabling the processor module to be securely mounted into the connector.
