Abstract
An apparatus includes a base, an integrated circuit (IC), a thermal interface material (TIM) disposed on the IC, and a heat sink. The heat sink has a vapor chamber (VC) and a condenser coupled with, and spaced from, the VC. The condenser also has a mounting arm extending outward to a side of the condenser. The apparatus further includes a mounting bracket that couples the condenser with the base. The mounting bracket defines one or more oblong holes to accommodate respective horizontally-oriented fasteners that secure the mounting arm to the mounting bracket in such a way that the condenser is oriented and positioned at a height that enables the VC to be arranged on the TIM in a neutral position. A method of assembling such an apparatus is also disclosed.
