The Raspberry Pi 5 Active Cooler is the official cooling accessory for the Raspberry Pi 5. It combines an aluminium heatsink with a small blower fan that mounts directly to the board's dedicated fan header. It is the simplest way to stop the Pi 5 from throttling under sustained load. It costs more than a bare heatsink but is quieter and more effective than the passive alternatives, and it is far less bulky than a full case with fans.

Owners and reviewers treat the Active Cooler as the default cooling choice for the Pi 5. They report that it keeps the board from throttling in stress tests and stays quiet in normal use. The main complaints are the extra height and fan noise under sustained load.
