Details:
RasTech Pi 5 8GB Kit Includes: 1 x RPi 5 Motherboard (8GB RAM), 1 x 64GB SD Card, 1 x ABS Mini PC Case (Raspberry Pi 5 Case), 1 x Active Cooler, 1 x 5.1V 5A Charger, 2 x Micro HDMI Cable, 1 x SD Card Reader, 1 x SD Card Adapter, 1 x Mini Screwdriver

27W Type-C Safe Charger: Charger can supply up to 5.1V/5A DC. Includes various safety protection functions, such as overvoltage, low voltage, overcurrent, short circuit and static current protection.

2 x Micro HDMI Cable: Pi 5 8GB Kit comes with two dedicated 1.5m Mini HDMI to HDMI cables, which can simultaneously connect to two 4K monitors @ 60Hz, improving audio and video quality.

Better Cooling System: With 3510 ultra-quiet cooling fan and thermal pads, it can quickly lower the temperature of the Raspberry Pi board, the fan can be controlled by PWM. The official Raspberry Pi operating system supports variable fan speed adjustment.

Upgraded Powerful Performance: Rasp Pi 5 equipped with 2.4GHz quad-core 64-bit arm Cortex-A76 CPU, equipped with 512KB L2 caches and a 2MB shared L3 cache. This remarkable improvement leads to a 3x increase in CPU performance compared to its predecessor (Raspberry Pi 4). The Cortex-A76 CPU is more advanced and energy efficient, offering superior single-thread and multi-thread performance.

Raspberry Pi OS is a Unix-like operating system based on the Debian GNU/Linux distribution for the Raspberry Pi family of compact single-board computers. The mini computer also supports Ubuntu, Windows (on ARM), Android, and operating systems designed for Media, Retro Gaming Emulation, or 3D Printing.

The 64-bit newest version of our operating system delivers a superb desktop performance, making it an ideal computer for work, leisure, enterprise, and more.

The everything computer. Optimized.
With 2–3× the speed of the previous generation, and silicon designed in‑house for the best possible performance, we’ve redefined the Raspberry Pi experience.

Raspberry Pi 5 is built using the RP1 I/O controller, a package containing silicon designed in-house. USB 3 has more total bandwidth, for much faster transfer speeds. Camera and DSI display connectors are interchangeable, so you can have one of each, or two the same.

We are Raspberry Pi. We make computers.
We’re on a mission to put high-performance, low-cost, general-purpose computing platforms in the hands of enthusiasts and engineers all over the world.

Since 2012, we’ve been designing single-board and modular computers, built on Arm architecture, running Linux operating system. Whether you’re an educator looking to excite the next generation of computer scientists; an enthusiast designing a cool project; or an OEM developing next generation of smart products, there’s a Raspberry Pi computer for you.
