**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** CE10313 · **Brand:** [52Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/52pi-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/52pi-ice-tower-cooler-raspberry-pi-4-3b.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/52pi-ice-tower-cooler-raspberry-pi-4-3b.html.md))

Keep your Pi 4 or Pi 3 running cool and fast under heavy load, with a copper heat-pipe tower and a colour-shifting fan.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $20.90 (inc GST) — $19.00 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney).
- We can dispatch 20 today; more stock is typically available with a 12–35 day lead time.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE10313:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE10313:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Serious tower-style cooling for the Raspberry Pi 4 and Pi 3. A copper heat pipe, a stack of heatsink fins and a colour-cycling fan work together to keep your CPU well clear of thermal throttling.

The Raspberry Pi 4 starts throttling at 80 °C, so long compiles, emulation or overclocking can quietly slow you down. 52Pi says this cooler takes an overclocked Pi from around 80 °C down to roughly 40 °C.

A 5 mm copper heat pipe draws heat up from the SoC into multi-layer fins, and a 7-blade fan pushes air straight through the stack. It runs from the Pi's own GPIO header at just 0.4 W, so you don't need a separate power supply. Steel brackets bolt it to the standard Model B mounting holes, and the fan's RGB LEDs cycle through 7 colours on their own.

### Features

- Keeps sustained workloads and overclocks cool, thanks to a 5 mm copper heat pipe feeding a multi-layer fin stack
- Moves plenty of air through the fins with a 7-blade fan
- Powered straight from the GPIO header (5 V, 0.08 A), with no extra power supply or wiring
- Adds some colour to your build: the fan's RGB LEDs cycle through 7 colours automatically
- Can run quieter: move the red lead from 5 V to a 3.3 V pin for lower noise and a softer glow, at the cost of some airflow
- Bolts on securely with steel mounting brackets and brass standoffs, and thermal pads give good contact with the SoC
- Protects the board underneath with an included acrylic panel. Note: the tower is too tall for most enclosed cases.
