Official Pi 5 Case
Can the new official Raspberry Pi 5 case keep the Pi 5 cool? Les Pounder is – brace yourselves readers – on the case…
IN BRIEF
The official Raspberry Pi 5 case continues the design lineage of its predecessors and can keep the flagship Pi 5 cool even under pressure, thanks to an integrated fan that uses the provided fan connector. The injectionmoulded case is strong and light, and a removable lid provides access to the GPIO and HAT support.
The official Raspberry Pi case was introduced during the tenure of the Pi 3B, and the white and raspberry pink case has protected many Pis since. The Raspberry Pi 5 has now received its first official case and on the outside it continues its lineage. The case clips together without the need for tools, and the build quality is excellent. There is even a button with a light-pipe for the Pi 5 power button and LED.
