A heat dissipation device assembly includes a heat dissipation device for dissipating heat from an electronic element and a protective device assembly. The heat dissipation device includes a base with fasteners extending therethrough, a plurality of fins arranged on a top of the base, and a heat conducting plate attached on a bottom of the base. A thermal interface material is spread on a bottom surface of the heat conducting plate. The protective device assembly includes a first cover attached to a bottom of the heat conducting plate and a second cover separated from the first cover and attached to a lateral side of the base. The first cover protects the thermal interface material from being contaminated and the second cover protects the fasteners from dropping from the base, when the heat dissipation device is transported.
