This works well, is very quiet and still allows you to fit the Pi into a case if required.

Can’t fault the price and performance of this little doohickey. Very quiet and can only tell it’s on by not seing the individual blades of the fan. They are a blur! A little tricky to install, getting the header cable on to the pi and then lining up the mounting hardware to then depress two spring loaded “plugs” (not sure of the correct term) would benefit from another hand. Saying that, once on it hasn’t caused me any issues.

It's the job to cool down the pi. Beautiful design

Cool and quiet, if you find it on full blast after fresh installs just get your updates done and it’s sorted.

Great cooler, fits within the Raspberry Pi 5 Official Case with Fan if you remove the fan included with the case which I think will provide better passive cooling on more of the components. Not pushed the pi yet to see if it makes much noise but I've not noticed it yet

Very good addition to the Pi as it can quickly start to throttle. It is also very quite, especially under low load - the fan is stalled.
