The heat dissipation assembly 200 includes at least one first fan 210, at least one second fan 220, at least one third fan 230, a fourth fan 240, and an air guide 250. In this embodiment, at least one first fan 210 is two first fans 211 and 212. The first fans 211 and 212 have a first fan width W1 and are disposed on the front side 101 of the chassis 100 and along the second direction. The D2 arrangement is used to inhale external air into the interior of the chassis 100 .

At least one second fan 220 is disposed on the graphics card 110 and is disposed adjacent to the air guide 250 to suck air in to prevent the graphics card 110 from overheating during operation. In this embodiment, the at least one second fan 220 is three second fans 221, 222, and 223, which are arranged along the first direction D1 toward the left side 103 of the chassis 100, and are separated from the left side 103 by a distance.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the at least one third fan 230 is two third fans 231 and 232 , which are disposed on the upper side 105 to discharge the air inside the chassis 100 from the upper side 105 . The fourth fan 240 is disposed on the rear side 102 to discharge the air inside the chassis 100 from the rear side 102 . Although the number of each fan is described in this embodiment, it is not limited to this and can be changed as required.

As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 , the air guide cover 250 has a first side wall S1 , a second side wall S2 , a third side wall S3 , and a fourth side wall S4 . The side wall S3 and the fourth side wall S4 form a hollow structure with an air inlet 251 and an air outlet 252 . The air inlet 251 is adjacent to the first fan 210 , and the air outlet 252 is disposed adjacent to the second fan 220 .

Among the first side wall S1, the second side wall S2, the third side wall S3, and the fourth side wall S4, the first side wall S1 is closest to the left side 103 of the casing 100 and has a recessed portion R. The recessed portion R goes from the air inlet 251 to The air outlet 252 gradually moves away from the left side 103 . In this embodiment, the first fan 210 can be a fan with dynamic lighting effects, such as an RGB fan or an ARGB fan, and a recessed portion R that is recessed at an angle toward the inside of the chassis 100 is provided on the first side wall S1, and the recessed portion is The R part is hollowed out to be a specific text symbol, so that the light of the first fan 210 can be emitted into the left side 103 of the glass side cover through the aforementioned text symbol, thereby achieving the best visual effect.

In addition, the first side wall S1 gradually approaches the left side 103 from the air inlet 251 to the air outlet 252. More specifically, since there is a distance between the first fan 210 and the left side 103, by moving the first side wall S1 closer to the left side 103 , can reduce the turbulence caused by the air within the gap to the air flowing out from the air guide 250.

The second side wall S2 is opposite to the first side wall S1 and gradually approaches the left side 103 from the air inlet 251 to the air outlet 252 so as to be adjacent to the second fan 220 . The third side wall S3 and the fourth side wall S4 are opposite to each other and perpendicular to the second direction D2, and a distance between the third side wall S3 and the fourth side wall S4 is an air guide length L1. When viewed along the second direction D2, the third side wall S3 of the air guide 250 overlaps the fourth side wall S4 and has a trapezoidal shape.

As shown in Figures 1 and 6, the air inlet 251 has an air inlet width Wi in the third direction D3. This air inlet width Wi is at least equal to the first fan width W1 of the first fans 211 and 212, so as to be as complete as possible. The air blown out by the first fans 211 and 212 in the third direction D3 is collected. In addition, the air inlet 251 is configured to cover a portion of each of the two first fans 211 and 212 .

In more detail, since the first fans 211 and 212 are juxtaposed up and down in the second direction D2, the air inlet 251 can be provided to cover the lower part of the first fan 211 and the upper part of the first fan 212 to receive the air from the first fan 211 and the upper part of the first fan 212. 211 and the upper part of the first fan 212 blows air. When viewed along the first direction D1, the air inlet 251 and the air outlet 252 at least partially overlap, and a cross-sectional area A1 of the air inlet 251 (refer to the dotted line framed part in Figure 5) is larger than a cross-sectional area A2 of the air outlet 252 (refer to 4), and the display card 110 and the air outlet 252 do not overlap.

As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the second fans 221, 222, and 223 have a second fan length L2 along the second direction D2. The second fan length L2 is substantially the same as the air guide length L1, and guides the air. The cover 250 and the second fans 221, 222, and 223 are disposed at the same or nearly the same height from the lower side 106 in the second direction D2. Therefore, the air entering the air guide cover 250 is guided to the space between the second fans 221, 222, 223 and the left side 103, and is inhaled by the second fans 221, 222, 223. Therefore, compared with not providing the air guide cover 250 , the air turbulence caused by being blocked by other components in the chassis 100 can be avoided, thereby achieving better heat dissipation efficiency.

In addition, since the air guide 250 can divide the air sucked by the two first fans 211 and 212 into three parts, heat can be dissipated toward the upper area, the middle area, and the lower area respectively. That is to say, as mentioned above, the air blown out by the lower part of the first fan 211 and the upper part of the first fan 212 is directed toward the middle area and dissipates heat of the graphics card 110 through the air guide cover 250 , and the air can be disposed at the rear. A plurality of heat dissipation holes H on the side 102 are discharged.

The air blown by the upper part of the first fan 211 is directed toward the upper area to dissipate heat from the motherboard 120 , and the air can pass through the two third fans 231 and 232 provided on the upper side 105 and the third fan provided on the rear side 102 . Four fans 240 exhaust.

The air blown from the lower part of the first fan 212 is directed toward the lower area to dissipate heat of the hard disk 130 and the power supply 140 , and the air can be discharged through a plurality of heat dissipation holes H provided on the lower side 106 .

As mentioned above, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a desktop computer including a chassis and a heat dissipation component. The chassis has a front side and a rear side, wherein the front side and the rear side are parallel and opposite. The heat dissipation component includes at least one first fan, an air guide hood, and at least one second fan. At least one first fan is disposed on the front side of the chassis. The air guide hood has an air inlet and an air outlet, and the air inlet is adjacent to at least one first fan. At least one second fan is disposed adjacent to the air outlet of the air guide hood. Among them, this heat dissipation component can not only improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the vertical graphics card, but also improve the overall heat dissipation efficiency of the desktop computer.
