iRasptek Starter Kit for Raspberry Pi 5 8GB RAM-Pre-Loaded with 128GB Edition Raspberry Pi OS (Aluminum Case)

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!

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!

This kit gives you all the essentials in one box — a sturdy case, reliable power supply, cooling, cables and SD card with pre-installed Raspberry Pi OS. Everything fits well, feels solid, and makes setup fast. Great value if you want a clean, ready-to-run Raspberry Pi setup

Great starter kit that really comes with everything you need. Setup was quick and easy, kit comes with everything needed, boots up in just a few seconds. I got this for my high schooler who’s taking AP Computer Science, and it’s been perfect for experimenting with Raspberry Pi and Linux. The aluminum case keeps it from overheating, and the compact design makes it easy to fit anywhere. Comes with a quality power supply, SD card, and HDMI cables. Solid kit and highly recommend.

built solid, easy to use while very powerful. I hooked it up with a light sensor to control motorized blinds open/close by visible light in rooms instead only by timer, Pi runs my python code flawlessly!
