“This little cooler is only tiny but brings the temperatures down nicely. It’s easy to fit and leaves room for hat’s etc.
A real bonus is you can hardly hear it running.
The heat sink comes well packed with everything required.
Great service, Pi”
“The Active Cooler for the Raspberry Pi 5 is practically essential if you plan to get the most out of the device. It’s compact, easy to install, and makes a noticeable difference in thermal performance. With the cooler attached, the Pi stays significantly cooler under load, reducing throttling and ensuring consistent performance during demanding tasks. The fan is relatively quiet, making it suitable even for desk setups or quiet environments. Installation is quick and straightforward, especially compared to third-party cooling solutions.”
“Great product. Without the cooler, my Pi 5 was running between 70–80°C, but after installing it, I can see a clear difference. The maximum temperature I have noticed so far is 44°C.”
“Got this as an upgrade from the heatsink and fan that came as part of the raspberry pi 5 starter kit. The active cooler by comparison is much more compact compared to the old cooler and it runs at a temperature approximately 10 degrees less than before. New heat sink is also an absolute unit and covers a significant area of the raspberry pi.”
