To ensure the best performance for your Raspberry Pi, use an active cooling solution such as a fan. Raspberry Pi firmware manages fan speeds for all official fans.

Both of these plug into the four-pin JST-SH PWM fan connector located in the upper right of the board between the 40-pin GPIO header and the USB 2 ports. The fan connector pulls from the same current limit as USB peripherals. We recommend the Active Cooler case for overclockers, since it provides better cooling performance.

At boot the fan is turned on, and the tachometer input is checked to see if the fan is spinning. If it is, then the `cooling_fan` device tree overlay is enabled. This overlay is in `bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dtb` by default, but with `status=disabled`.
