This product simply did the job cooling my Raspberry Pi 4 from 80c to 43c!!! Definitely worth it and I would suggest you should as well!

One of the main things I wanted out of the Pi 4 was OpenGL ES 3.0 and more CPU crunching, which the Pi 4 gives in spades. However, the little fellow gets pretty toasty now, on first test it was showing a range of around 75-80 degrees. Pimoroni Fan SHIM to the rescue! The assembly was pretty straightforward, though it's a little fiddly connecting the cable but everything came together nicely. It fits pretty snugly and looks dapper in it's Pimoroni case. But how does it perform? Well, I'm astonished to say it takes away at least 40 degrees of heat and pushing both CPU and GPU as hard as it will go I've been really pleased with this fan. Not too noisy, though not silent (and I have checked fittings). Highly recommended, well done guys!

Fits lovely in the coupe case, nearly silent and works well.

Fan direction looks wrong. It is set to blow ambient air on to CPU and not another way around.

Super easy to fit and install the software. Very quiet and effective little fan.
