Aluminium Armour Dual-Fan Heatsink Case for Raspberry Pi 5
This is a version of our Aluminium Armour case for Raspberry Pi 5 with dual software-controllable fans for ultimate cooling performance!
If you plan to run very power-hungry projects with your Raspberry Pi 5 or keep your project in a warm environment, this might be the better option for you.
The two-part aluminium body makes direct contact (via thermal pads) with your Pi 5’s critical components, ensuring excellent heat transfer – backed up by the dual fans. The fans use the Raspberry Pi 5 JST fan socket connector, keeping all your GPIO pins free for your project, allowing software control based on the temperature of your CPU – keep the fans off when they’re not needed!
All ports and pins are accessible including GPIO and Micro SD access, fan/UART/RTC headers and even cut-outs for the PoE, CSI/DSI and PCI-E ports.
Assembly is easy – just fit the thermal pads (remove the backing film first), position the upper/lower sections, then use the four screws (thicker head) to secure the case together, and finally screw the two fans in with the eight (thinner head) screws.
Note:
- Do not overtighten the fan screws! They only need to be finger-tight and ‘just bite’ – no more or you may damage the fans!
- CSI, DSI and PCI-E ribbon cables should be fitted to the Raspberry Pi before assembling the case.You will need to disassemble the case to swap them out (which is just a matter of removing four screws).
- Raspberry Pi not included
