Review on Geekworm Raspberry Embedded Compatible Expansion by Ricardo Thotti

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Minor rework required

As other reviewers noted, the underside of the heatsink, which sits over the USB-C and HDMI ports, touches those components before the heatsink feet touch the board. I was able to cut about .020" of the heatsink around the USB-C and HDMI ports, but it still wasn't enough to get the heatsink support legs in contact with the board, causing the board to warp slightly in that area. Make a 0.050" indentation on the bottom of the heatsink where the USB-C and HDMI ports are located to solve this problem. Otherwise, the heatsink does the job it was designed for.
