Raspberry Pi 5 Case - Red/White

The Raspberry Pi 5 case is a refinement of the Raspberry Pi 4 case. With improved thermal features to support the higher peak power consumption of Raspberry Pi 5, it integrates a variable-speed fan. The fan is powered and controlled from a dedicated connector on the Raspberry Pi 5 PCB.

The case is available in the signature Raspberry Pi red/white color scheme.

  • Axial fan spec:
    • 30mm × 30mm × 7.5mm dimensions
    • Four wires: power, ground, PWM, and tachometer
    • The fan is quiet with an FDB bearing for low noise and increased longevity (50k hours)
    • Max fan speed is 8000RPM
    • Max airflow is approx 2.79CFM
  • Case spec:
    • A four-part ABS plastic enclosure that easily clips together
    • An accessories envelope included in the box contains a dedicated Pi 5 heatsink to stick on the CPU, plus four silicone feet on a strip

Very good case

The official RPi 5 case is quite good and it’s nice to have a removable cover that leaves the cooling fan in place and still has access to the GPIO header.

Raspberry Pi 5 Case - Red/White.

Gee, this "Raspberry Pi 5 Case - Red/White", sure looks cool! I wish you would ship the Raspberry Pi 5 that I ordered so I could give you a more in-depth review! ;-) Seriously, this looks like the best case that Raspberry Pi has offered for any of their SBCs. The built-in cooling fan looks good, I just hope it's good enough to keep the Raspberry Pi 5 cool.

Unbelievably of no real computing value

No external power connections, In fact, no connection for monitors or networks or anything. Very lightweight, but doesn’t even serve well as a paperweight. The box is just as functional. And utter disappointment
