How It Works
The Raspberry Pi 5 Active Cooler transfers heat away from the Raspberry Pi processor through a thermally conductive aluminum heatsink. Pre-applied thermal pads improve heat transfer between the processor and heatsink.
A temperature-controlled fan automatically increases airflow when the processor temperature rises, helping maintain safe operating temperatures and reducing performance throttling. This allows Raspberry Pi 5 systems to sustain higher processing loads for longer periods.
