Abstract
A memory module cooling system includes a liquid cooled manifold assembly and a heat spreader assembly rotateably attached to the liquid cooled manifold assembly about an axis perpendicular to the memory module. The liquid cooled manifold assembly includes a manifold, an liquid inlet, and a liquid outlet. The heat spreader assembly includes a base in thermal contact with a heat pipe, and a heat spreader in thermal contact with the heat pipe, the heat spreader configured to thermally engage the memory module. In certain embodiments, thermal bonds are maintained between a plurality of neighboring memory modules when a particular heat spreader assembly is rotated away from an associated memory module.
