In the server, the case is used to house the circuit board assembly, so that the circuit board assembly is stably placed in the case.

As the power consumption of the processor chip of the circuit board assembly of the server is getting higher and higher, the power loss generated by the wiring (such as copper foil) inside the circuit board is very large when the power supply chip supplies power to the processor chip. In order to reduce the power loss caused by the wiring inside the circuit board, a feasible solution is to reduce the wiring distance between the power supply chip and the processor chip, thereby reducing the wiring resistance, reducing the heating of the wiring, and further reducing the power consumption of the circuit.

Part of the space surrounded by the dotted line frame on the back side has no corresponding electronic components, thus resulting in waste of the internal space of the chassis 10 . On the other hand, since the height of the processor chip 202 on the front side of the circuit board 201 may be smaller than the height of other electronic components on the front side of the circuit board 201, the front side of the circuit board 201 in FIG. There is no corresponding electronic component in the enclosed part of the space, which also leads to waste of the internal space of the chassis 10 .
