Great for 24/7 server, provided airflow exists.
FYI: PI5 OEM CASE RESTRICTS COOLING. If you are running this 24/7 as a server, either take off the case top or cut holes above the fan and heatsink. Four ~10mm holes on the top lowered temps by 9c when compiling the Linux kernel (100% cpu load) and 4c idle.The fan can be configured to run at all temps or above a cutoff in the OS. Mine run 24/7, so other components on the board get some air over them.Temps stay nice and low with this cooler, and it is typically quiet enough that I don’t hear it. Install is super easy.

Works great - necessary these days
Ah there was a time when you could run Raspberry Pi's wide open with no cooler at all, or a stick on piece of metal for a heat sink. Those days are gone so you may as well get one of these. They take minutes to install and work great, even under heavy loads.I ran an LLM (Deepseek Large Language Model) on my Pi with this cooler and it did just fine.

Trusted.
You can’t go wrong with the official raspberry pi cooler. Also I don’t think I would ever run the board without one. Easy to install and worth the quality and peace of mind.

Fan works as expected!
Quiet and they stay firmly in place.

Works great but beware of cases causing heat bubbles.
Fits and works perfectly. Keeps my RPi5 at or below 60deg even under full load. Be careful about using cases with this cooler as some cases create a heat bubble even with the fan, causing temps to get into the throttling range. I tried an official case and it had this problem with the top on. Removing the top cover plate fixed the over heating. I finally 3D printed a case that avoids the heat bubble by placing a more open area above the fan and vented areas to this sides.

GREAT!
Best RPI yet

Perfect fit
It matched the Pi perfectly and worked right out of the box.

The official Raspberry Pi Cooler that is very cost effective and somewhat adequate at lowering temps
This is the official heat sink and fan for the Raspberry Pi 5. It does cool down the processor, but I'm sure there are alternatives that could perform better in regards to cooling, but will be much bulkier. It's easy to install and doesn't require any setup from what I can remember. It just works.
