“I bought this pi to connect to my Prusa 3D printer so that I could run Octopi on it, it works flawlessly for that and it's plenty quick to control the printer and stream video of the prints back to my PC. I 3D printed a case and I just happened to have a 40mm fan lying around, so I added that. I don't know if the fan was necessary but I had it so why not add it.”
