An information handling system may include a circuit board that includes a plurality of expansion slots. The information handling system may further include a cooling card coupled to at least one of the plurality of expansion slots, and a processor coupled to the circuit board (but where the cooling card does not contain the processor). Further, the processor may include a heat exchanger coupled thereto. The cooling card may include a heatsink, and a fluid channel thermally coupled to the heatsink, the fluid channel being fluidically coupled to the heat exchanger.
