Featuring dual 4Kp60 HDMI outputs, a high-quality aluminum case for durability, and an active cooling system, this kit is designed for professionals and makers seeking reliable, high-performance computing in a compact form factor. ## Description Package Include: 1x Pi 5 8GB Board, 1x 27W USB-C PD Power Adapter, 1x 128GB TF Card (Raspberry Pi OS pre-Installed), 1x Card Reader, 1x Active Cooler, 1x Pi 5 Metal Case, 2x 4K HDMI Cable, 1x Warranty Card, 1x Instruction Manual, 1x GPIO Reference Card Review: Can't ask for a better starter kit for getting into Raspberry Pie product world. It came with all the necessary item for a fully functionnal raspberry pie. The metal case in aluminum is of high quality as described. The case is hard aluminum, not the flimsy cheap stuff and the screw holes aligns perfectly. No need to worry; the PCB will fit perfectly in the case and the cutout for the connectors. The fan works good and it's not noisy. I'm able to use the product all day long and not worry of any overheating problem. I like the fact that it's basically plug and play. The OS is on the card, you just need to assemble, plug and start. Strongly recommend. Have fun! Review: Arrived on-time and in perfect condition. The box is compact and well organised. Everything is safely packaged. Very easy to put together, just be careful about your alignment of the active cooler as you don't get a second chance to have it line up with the holes for the pins. I had no problem looking directly down from above and slowly pressing it into place. No issues fitting the board into the case and the screw holes lined up perfectly, as did the ports with their respective holes in the side. Insert the micro SD card AFTER you install the board in the case to avoid damaging it. Installing it will be easy. The metal case in this kit is, in my opinion, sturdier and easier to deal with than the plastic case that came with my pi 3B+ (and I have no issues with that case either). All-in-all, a good purchase for me and I am quite happy with it! I am currently using it to brush up on my Linux command line knowledge and also learning Python 3 using Thonny (at the moment). Ultimately, I will integrate this into my home automation system currently being developed. I will also use the pi5 for a number of electronic experiments that I have planned. I will likely buy this again, and certainly recommend it. Thanks, and good job iRasptek! 14EC2024 edit: I have been enjoying this kit quite a bit. As part of my home automation project (and weather project, air quality project, AI bird recognition project, etc. ...) I have been acquiring a lot of tech, including another Pi5 from a different vendor as I needed the SBC and nothing else. That Pi5 had an SDRAM failure and I returned it today. I think I will just buy another from iRasptek as that one has been chugging away without a hitch. I tend to stick with what, and who, works for me. Cheers! ## Features - Welcome to the latest generation of Pi 5: the everything computer. Featuring a 64-bit quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor running at 2.4GHz, Pi 5 delivers a 2–3× increase in CPU performance relative to Pi 4. Alongside a substantial uplift in graphics performance from an 800MHz VideoCore VII GPU; dual 4Kp60 display output; and state-of-the-art camera support from a rearchitected Raspberry Image Signal Processor, it provides a smooth desktop experience for consumers, and opens the door to new applications for industrial customers. - iRasptek 27W USB-C Power Supply for Raspberry Pi 5: The iRasptek 27W USB-C power supply features a multi-protection design that is ideal for stabilizing the power supply and providing long-lasting durability for the Pi 5. Utilizing a high carrying capacity and high transmission UL2725 17AWG pure copper 3-core cable, it provides excellent power to the Pi 5's four Type A USB ports driving high power peripherals such as hard disks and SSDs. - High-Quality Metal Case: iRasptek metal case made of high-quality aluminum alloy, with good durability and strength, the upper cover is fixed by the screws, the base of the motherboard by four screws articulation, can effectively absorb external shocks and vibrations, to the Pi 5 provides double insurance, the case is equipped with a transparent power button, you can easily observe the status of the Pi 5 power indicator. - Pre-installed with 64-bit the new release OS Bookworm: Just Plug & Play! The latest release of OS is optimized for the Pi 5, offering exceptional desktop performance for work, leisure, enterprise, and beyond. - iRasptek Active Cooler: The active cooler is composed of anodized heat-conducting aluminum with a PWM fan, which has excellent thermal conductivity and is able to quickly conduct heat away from the Pi 5 motherboard, effectively lowering the temperature and maintaining a stable operating temperature. - Package Include: 1x Pi 5 8GB Board, 1x 27W USB-C PD Power Adapter, 1x 128GB TF Card (The new release OS Bookworm pre-Installed), 1x Card Reader, 1x Active Cooler, 1x Pi 5 Metal Case, 2x 4K Cable, 1x Instruction Manual, 1x GPIO Reference Card. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CZRHBX72 | | Are Batteries Included | No | | Brand | iRasptek | | Colour | Silver | | Computer Memory Type | SODIMM | | Connectivity Type | Wi-Fi | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (340) | | Date First Available | 28 Sept. 2024 | | Graphics Card Description | Integrated | | Graphics Card Interface | Integrated | | Graphics Chipset Brand | Broadcom VideoCore VI | | Graphics Coprocessor | Integrated Graphics | | Graphics RAM Type | GDDR6 | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Hard Disk Description | SSD | | Hard Drive Interface | Solid State | | Item Weight | 558 g | | Item model number | 8-128 | | Manufacturer | iRasptek | | Maximum Memory Supported | 8 GB | | Memory Technology | DDR4 | | Number of HDMI Ports | 1 | | Number of USB 3.0 Ports | 2 | | Operating System | Linux | | Package Dimensions | 15.19 x 12.6 x 9.7 cm; 558 g | | Processor Brand | Broadcom | | Processor Count | 4 | | Processor Socket | SMD | | Processor Speed | 2.4 GHz | | Processor Type | Cortex A7 | | RAM Size | 8 GB | | Resolution | 3840x2160 | | Screen Resolution | 3840 x 2160 | | Series | PI5CA8G | | Wireless Type | 802.11a/b/g/n/ac | ## Product Details - **Brand:** iRasptek - **CPU model:** Cortex A7 - **Memory storage capacity:** 128 GB - **Model name:** PI5CA8G - **RAM memory installed size:** 8 GB ## Images ![Starter Kit for Raspberry Pi 5 8GB RAM-Pre-Loaded with 128GB Edition Raspberry Pi OS (Aluminum Case) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81qw7qU9twL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why does the MicroSD card show less capacity than its actual size when inserted into a computer?** A: Because the SD card is preloaded with Pi OS，it was partitioned into multiple sections. The computer only displays the partitions it can read（e.g., the FAT32-formatted boot partition），making the available capacity appear smaller than the actual size. **Q: Will older versions of Pi OS work with Pi 5?** A: You will need the latest version of Pi OS, Bookworm, for your Pi 5. **Q: Will my Pi 4 power supply work with Pi 5?** A: Pi 5 is a higher-performance computer than Pi 4, and you may have problems using an under-powered supply. We recommend a high-quality 5V 5A USB-C power supply. **Q: Does Pi 5 need active cooling?** A: Pi 5 is faster and more powerful than prior-generation RPis, and like most general-purpose computers, it will perform best with active cooling. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by K***N on 27 April 2025* Can't ask for a better starter kit for getting into Raspberry Pie product world.
