The Raspberry Pi is a low-cost, credit-card-sized computer that plugs into a computer monitor or TV and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. It is a capable little device that enables people of all ages to explore computing and to learn how to program in languages like Scratch and Python. It’s capable of doing everything you’d expect a desktop computer to do, from browsing the internet and playing high-definition video to making spreadsheets, word processing, and playing games. When you are doing such high-power intensive work your Raspberry Pi is bound to heat up and then this might affect the working and processing power of the Pi which will result in thermal throttling if the heat is not dissipated it might result in the bursting of some components due to overheating. To tackle this issue you can use this Cooling Fan for Raspberry Pi. It is a 5V CPU cooling fan suitable for Raspberry Pi. The fan can directly be powered by the 5V GPIO pin of the PI. Normally used with heatsink and mounting screws on top of the Pi processor. The fan consumes about 120mA current operating under normal conditions. This Raspberry Pi Cooling Fan protects your Pi from Thermal shutdown during intensive operations and also enables you to perform overclocking.
