A heat dissipation device includes a heat sink, a retention module and a
clip securing the heat sink to the retention module. The retention module
includes a bottom wall and a plurality of sidewalls surrounding the
bottom wall. The heat sink includes a plurality of the fins and a
plurality of passages defined therebetween. The heat sink is located on
the bottom wall of the retention module. The sidewalls of the retention
module surround a bottom portion of the heat sink. The sidewalls define a
plurality of voids therein for an airflow generated by a fan mounted on
the heat sink passing therethrough. The airflow flows through the heat
sink and then the voids in the sidewalls of the retention module to cool
electronic components located beside the retention module.
