A heat sink includes a base (10) and heat pipes (20). The base includes a bottom surface contacting with a heat-generating electronic component (100), an upper surface defining grooves (12) receiving the heat pipes therein. Evaporating sections (22) of the heat pipes are located near a first end portion (10a) and condensing sections (24) of the heat pipes are located near a second end portion (10b) of the base. A first fin assembly (30) is mounted on the upper surface and a second fin assembly (40) is mounted on the bottom surface of the base near the second end portion thereof. A fan (200) is located near the second end portion of the base.

A heat dissipation device includes a fin assembly, a base, a heat pipe soldered with the base, and a heat spreader sandwiched between the heat pipe and the fin assembly. The fin assembly has a bottom face. The base has a bottom surface and a top surface. The heat pipe comprises an evaporation portion thermally engaging with the top surface of the base plate and a curved portion extending from the evaporation portion and projecting beyond the base plate. The heat spreader has a first face engaging with the bottom face of the fin assembly and a second face thermally engaging with the condensation portion of the heat pipe. The heat spreader has a profile on the bottom face of the fin assembly, which is in compliance with at least a portion of the heat pipe.
