## Description

This Mini Tower Kit from 52Pi is the ultimate home for your [Raspberry Pi 5](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-boards-kits-and-accessories.html), **including** an LED ICE tower cooler, 0.96" OLED, strong ABS core and full port access!

An update of 52Pi's previous tower kit for the Pi 4, this latest Mini Tower Kit comes packed with improvements based on customer feedback.

The kit holds your Pi 5 within a strong ABS central frame, sandwiched between two acrylic side panels which provide full view of your Raspberry Pi along with access to the all ports including [MicroSD card](https://core-electronics.com.au/32gb-microsd-card-with-noobs-for-all-raspberry-pi-boards.html) and GPIO pins. The front of the frame holds a 0.96" SSD1306 OLED display *(included, pre-fitted)* for displaying system status information *(or other information if you code it that way)* and offers access to the Pi 5 USB and Ethernet ports.

Inside the enclosure is an ICE Tower cooler *(included in the package - you'll need to fit this to your Raspberry Pi)* keeping your Pi cool whilst also looking amazing with the multi-colour LED lights! There's also a GPIO adapter board included, giving side access to the GPIO pins for attaching ribbon cables.

We *really* like some of the more subtle improvements 52Pi have made here, such as the new ABS materianl, quick-release OLED mount, non-slip rubber feet, cable management and embedded screw mounting points.
