Abstract
An apparatus and method is provided for conveying heat away from an electronic component. In one embodiment, a method positions a conformable thermal interface element in heat conducting contact with an electronic component. A heat conducting member is disposed within the conformable thermal interface element. The heat conducting member is coupled with a manifold so that the heat conducting member is in heat conducting contact with the manifold. The electronic component may be installed or removed without disassembly of the apparatus.
