Zusammenfassung:1. Field of the Invention The electronic device with a system for enhancing the cooling of components located therein is provided. The device includes a housing with a fan positioned adjacent the housing and adapted for producing airflow within the housing. The printed circuit board is mounted within the housing, and a heat-producing device is mounted on the printed circuit board. The heatsink is coupled to the heat-producing device, and a shroud is mounted on the printed circuit board and extends up to the heatsink so as to improve airflow in the region adjacent the heatsink.
