ABSTRACT:
A cooling system for a computer includes a chassis having a sidewall with an opening formed therein. A heat spreader plate is mounted in the chassis including a heat sink attached thereto adjacent the sidewall. The heat sink has a side mounted base and a plurality of fins extending laterally from the base toward the sidewall. One of the fins is attached to the heat spreader plate. A heat pipe is connected to the heat spreader plate and extends into engagement with the heat sink. Each of the fins has a terminal edge and opposed ends. The fins at one of the opposed ends are uniformly sloped at an angle toward the base and are exposed to the opening in the sidewall, thus providing the appearance of an inlet grill.
