ABSTRACT:
A computer has an internal chassis which is mounted within an enclosure. A variety of electronic components including a motherboard, a power supply and a ventilation fan are mounted to the chassis. The power supply has a small housing located within the enclosure. The housing is shaped to span the motherboard and requires no ducting. The ventilation fan is mounted to an inlet opening of the housing so that air is forced through the power supply before exiting the enclosure. The ventilation fan also pressurizes the housing such that a small, strategically located vent may be used to allow impingement cooling of other motherboard components.
