A heatsink apparatus has a construction which produces a high heat-radiating effect even if the apparatus is designed to be compact or to have a small thickness. The heatsink apparatus includes a base plate to which a heat-generating body may be connected, a heat-radiating portion, and a fan mounted on the base plate. The heat-radiating portion includes plate-like members having main surfaces facing the base plated, and a fan mounted on the base plate.
