MCDODO Raspberry Pi 5 2GB Basic Kit with Active Cooler and Case

SKU CH-8D4X-42SHK

Basic kit containing a Raspberry Pi 5 2GB board, an ABS case with a transparent power button, and a PWM active cooler that stays off at 50°C and runs full speed at 65°C

  • TypeSingle Board Computers
  • Ready-to-build kit with Pi 5 2GB board included
  • ABS case with rounded edges protects components from damage
  • Partially hollowed case design allows passive heat dissipation
  • PWM active cooler stays silent below 50°C
  • Fan ramps linearly between 50-65°C for efficient cooling

MCDODO Raspberry Pi 5 2GB Basic Kit

This basic kit bundles a Raspberry Pi 5 board with 2GB of RAM alongside a dedicated ABS case and an active cooler. It targets hobbyists and students who want a ready-to-assemble single-board computer for learning, prototyping or lightweight IoT projects. The package removes the hassle of sourcing compatible cooling and protection separately. Everything needed to start building arrives in one box.

2GB RAM capacity and active cooling headroom

The 2GB memory handles typical coding tasks, basic web services and sensor-driven automation comfortably. Under sustained heavy compute loads the limited RAM will become the bottleneck before the processor saturates. The PWM active cooler keeps thermals in check: the fan stays off below 50°C, ramps linearly between 50 and 65°C, then runs at full speed above 65°C to prevent thermal throttling during prolonged workloads.

Upgrading from passively cooled or uncased boards

Builders moving from a bare board or a passively cooled enclosure gain mechanical protection and controlled thermals without adding noise at idle. The screw-fixed ABS shell shields the PCB while its cut-outs maintain airflow. The integrated power button lets you monitor the status LED at a glance. This kit is not suited for users who need more than 2GB of memory or who require pre-installed storage and a power supply.

Questions about this item

Will the active cooler fit if I keep my existing HAT or pHAT on the GPIO header?

The supplied cooler mounts directly on the Pi 5 board inside the case; clearance for add-on HATs is not described in the kit details.

How can I verify the PWM fan is responding to temperature after I assemble the kit?

Under Pi OS the fan stays off below 50 °C, ramps up between 50 °C and 65 °C, and runs at full speed above 65 °C, so you can watch its behaviour as the board warms.

Does the box contain a power supply or microSD card, or do I need to buy them separately?

The package includes only the Pi 5 2 GB board, the ABS case and the active cooler; a power supply and microSD card are not included.
