Pibow Coupe 5 Ninja for Raspberry Pi 5

The Pimoroni PIM677 Pibow Coupe 5 Ninja is a protective case designed exclusively for the Raspberry Pi 5 single-board computer. Its super-slimline profile keeps the board compact while a clear top panel leaves the Pi 5 visible for easy inspection. All ports, connectors and the GPIO header remain fully accessible through precise cut-outs. Builders and hobbyists who want a minimal enclosure that does not hide the board will find it practical.

Sustained use with Active Cooler compatibility

The case is engineered to fit neatly around the Raspberry Pi 5 Official Active Cooler, allowing the board to run under continuous load without thermal throttling caused by a tight enclosure. A dedicated tab lets you press the Pi 5 power button while the board stays secured inside. HAT and pHAT add-ons mount without interference, so extended operation with extra hardware stays stable. The open layout supports steady airflow around the cooler during long sessions.

Raspberry Pi 5 only compatibility constraint

This enclosure fits the Raspberry Pi 5 and nothing else; earlier Pi models or other single-board computers will not align with the port cut-outs or mounting points. The Active Cooler is supported but not included, and the Pi 5 board itself must be sourced separately. Buyers who need a case for a different board or a bundle that includes the computer should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Does the slim Pibow Coupe 5 Ninja case trap heat when the Raspberry Pi 5 runs all day?

The super-slimline profile is designed to fit neatly around the Raspberry Pi 5 Official Active Cooler, leaving all ports and connectors accessible so the cooler can exhaust heat effectively during continuous operation.

What Raspberry Pi hardware must I already own for the PIM677 case to work?

This case is compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 only and is designed to fit around the Raspberry Pi Official Active Cooler; neither the Pi 5 board nor the cooler are included.

Can I keep using my existing HAT or pHAT add-on boards with the Pibow Coupe 5 Ninja fitted?

Yes, the case is fully HAT and pHAT compatible and includes a GPIO cut-out, so your current add-on boards will connect and function normally while the Pi 5 is inside the case.
