ABSTRACT:
A butt-joint CPU mounting structure includes a connector having two opposite faces. Each face has a receiving slot disposed therein adapted to respectively and receivingly engage with a CPU module and an edge of a main board of a computer thereby connecting the CPU module to the main board. The receiving slots are arranged in alignment with each other whereby the CPU module is substantially coplanar with the main board. A CPU holder includes two support members each defining a channel for receiving opposite side flanges of the connector. Bolts are used to secure the support members to the side flanges of the connector. The CPU module is received between the two support members whereby opposite edges of the CPU module are engaged and supported by the support members. A connection member is connected between the two support members for strengthening the mechanical structure thereof. The support members are provided with bolt holes through which bolts extend for engaging with a housing of the computer.
