Abstract

A modular computer system includes a power supply drawer for supplying and regulating the power, an interface module, a plurality of functional drawers, and a case. The interface module is electrically connected to the power supply drawer and the functional drawers, and has an electric power distributor for distributing the power from the power supply drawer. Each of the functional drawers provides a specific function, and has a voltage regulation module for regulating the power from the interface module. The case has one side anchored with the interface module, and includes a plurality of first partitions and a second partition for accommodating the functional drawers and the power supply drawer therein respectively. Thus, the heat produced in operation is not concentrating near the central processing unit in case anymore. By adjusting the specific functions of the functional drawers, users can be fully satisfied with the flexibility of arranging apparatus units.
