This heavy-duty case for Raspberry Pi 5 offers excellent protection for your board whilst providing silent, efficient cooling through the all-metal body and ridged surfaces.
Heat is transferred from your Pi 5 CPU and other critical components via direct contact with the top section of the case (via thermal pads), which has a ridged top and bottom to aid heat dissipation. It also gives the case a minimal and smart appearance which we think looks great on our desks!
You get access to all of the side ports - USB, HDMI, Power and Micro SD - with power button access provided by a button insert (which should be fitted when assembling the case). CSI/DSI and PCI-E access is managed via a slot at the SD end of the case, however you'll need to fit cables before assembling the case (you can also use these slot for UART connections). A slot is also provided for a GPIO ribbon cable to pass through when the case is closed.
Raspberry Pi not included

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- DSI
- DSI stands for Display Serial Interface, a high-speed connection commonly used to send video data from a computer board to a display. It matters because DSI signals are not simple GPIO wires, so the cable, connector, and signal routing need to match the display interface.
- GPIO
- General-purpose input/output pins are microcontroller pins you can set in software to read signals, switch devices on and off, or connect to peripherals. The number of GPIO pins matters because it limits how many buttons, LEDs, sensors, and other parts you can wire directly to the board.
- HDMI
- HDMI is a common digital video and audio connection used by computers, media players, and many displays. If a display kit has HDMI input, it is usually much easier to test with a single-board computer because it can act like a normal monitor.
- UART
- UART is a simple serial connection that sends data over separate transmit and receive wires, often labelled TX and RX. It matters because this module is designed to replace a wired UART cable with a wireless link while keeping the same serial data format.
