ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method therefore mount an array of different heatsinks to a closely packed array of data processing elements utilized within a data processing system. The apparatus includes a metal frame with multiple apertures in the bottom to allow access to the tops of the devices for which heatsinks will be provided. The metal frame has multiple apertures that allow access to the tops of the data processing elements underneath. The metal frame serves as a containment vehicle for multiple heatsinks, and also provides rigidity to the printed circuit board in the particularly vulnerable vicinity of the corners where the devices are attached to the printed circuit board.
