Hi, will this cooler fit if the pi is wearing an AI HAT+ 26 TOPS? Is there a better cooling option for this situation?

Hey @Timothy56227,

Yep! The **[Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ 26 TOPS](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-ai-hat-26-tops-for-raspberry-pi-5.html)** will fit on a Pi 5 with an Active Cooler attached. This is the cooler used by Pi to test these AI HATs, so it should be the best one for the job!

Hi Support, is your Raspberry Pi 5 Active Cooler SKU: CE09791 compatible with the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 1GB SKU: CE06423 I purchased from you previously. Cheers Bruce

Hi there, @Bruce188151, glad to see you back on the forums.

Unfortunately, the Pi 5 Active Cooler is not compatible with the Pi 4. The Pi 4 lacks both the support holes needed for holding the Active Cooler and Fan Controller connector to run it.
