Review on πŸ”§ GeeekPi Acrylic Case with Cooling Fan and 7PCS Heatsinks for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B & Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, Brown by Kelly Thomas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits Pine64 Rock64 board (aka Iconikal Rockchip)

Iconikal Rockchip SBC recently appeared on Revain at a very reasonable price. They sold out quickly but I was able to buy one when the second set came out, albeit at a slightly higher price. This particular board will likely fit any Raspberry Pi 3 case, however there will be a gap where one of the USB ports is located and you will also need to drill a hole for the power connector (Iconikal has a cylindrical power connector instead of a micro USB ). ). I didn't feel like drilling holes, so I went for this open design case. The board fits perfectly, but the assembly instructions for this case could be a bit better. Also, the tiny nuts and bolts were a little tricky to keep in place, they were easy to fall off and possibly get lost forever in the abyss known as the carpet/floor. Luckily they've added a few extras in case that happens. Otherwise it's a great case for this board, even the small fan worked. The 40-pin GPIO header is still available, but the smaller 22-pin is not. I just figured out where to place the heatsinks (they probably don't do much anyway).

Pros
  • Same as everything before
Cons
  • Not sure
