1. A fixing assembly suitable for being arranged on a circuit board, wherein the circuit board has a connector configured to fix an expansion card, and the fixing assembly comprises:
a body, comprising a top surface and a bottom surface opposite to each other;
a connection column positioned on the top surface, and the connection column is configured to connect a heat sink; and
a buckle structure, adjacent to the body, comprising:
a pressing part, away from the circuit board;
a buckle part, wherein an end is connected to the pressing part and has an inclined surface and a blocking surface connected to each other, and the blocking surface is parallel to the top surface and has a gap with the top surface;
an elastic member, connected to another end of the buckle part and extending toward the circuit board; and
a base, contacting the circuit board and comprising a first side and a second side opposite to each other, the first side faces the connector, and the second side is connected to the elastic member, wherein the body is disposed between the first side and the second side;
when a first end of the expansion card is connected to the connector, a second end of the expansion card slides along the inclined surface to the top surface and is fixed in the gap by being abutted by the blocking surface.
