## Description

This is a version of the [Aluminium Armour case for Raspberry Pi 5](https://core-electronics.com.au/aluminium-armour-heatsink-case-raspberry-pi-5.html) with a **high-airflow** **blower fan** for ultimate cooling performance!

If you plan to run very power-hungry projects with your [Raspberry Pi 5](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-boards-kits-and-accessories.html) 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 blower fan. The fan makes use of the Raspberry Pi 5 JST fan socket connector, keeping all your GPIO pins free for your project and allowing software control based on the temperature of your CPU - keep the fan off when it's not needed!

All ports and pins are accessible including GPIO and [Micro SD](https://core-electronics.com.au/16gb-microsd-card-with-noobs-for-all-raspberry-pi-boards.html) access, fan/UART/RTC headers and even cut-outs for the PoE, CSI/DSI and PCI-E ports.

Assembly is easy - first, secure the blower fan with the three silver screws, then fit the thermal pads (remove the backing film first), position the upper/lower sections, and finally use the four black screws to secure the case together.

**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**
