Embodiments of a dock with an actively controlled heatsink for a multi-form factor Information Handling System (IHS) are described. In some embodiments, a dock may include: a base, a plateau configured to receive an IHS, and an arm coupling a distal edge of the base to a proximal edge of the plateau, where the plateau comprises a heatsink configured to cool a heatpipe disposed within the IHS via a bottom surface of the IHS.
