Review on πŸ“¦ GeeekPi Acrylic Case with Cooling Fan and Heatsinks for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (Only for Pi 4) - Black and Clear by Lonnie Batch

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cools my Raspberry Pi 4 under load

I chose this case for a Raspberry PI 4 (4GB memory) that I use to run an OpenCV application that tracks specific vehicles in an RTSP stream. The kit consists of layers of acrylic plastic that form a case with the appropriate screws, fans and heatsinks. Assembly is pretty easy if you follow the tutorial video. Header extensions to keep the GPIO connector high enough to attach a hat. I used some male/female jumpers to increase the length of the fan cables. For testing, I started compiling OpenCV 4 without the fan header and then plugged it in after the CPU temp stabilized at around 80C. Below is the shell command log I used to monitor the CPU, showing the fan dropping the temperature from 80 to 50. I think this set is great value for money. :42:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:43:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:44:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8349V09:45:45 82.0'C 1000MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8349V09:46:45 82.0' C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8402V09:47:46 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8296V09:48:46 74.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8402V09:49:46 64.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:50:46 61.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09: I think this set is great value for money. :42:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:43:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:44:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8349V09:45:45 82.0'C 1000MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8349V09:46:45 82.0' C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8402V09:47:46 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8296V09:48:46 74.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8402V09:49:46 64.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:50:46 61.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09: I think this set is great value for money. :42:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:43:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:44:45 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8349V09:45:45 82.0'C 1000MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8349V09:46:45 82.0' C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8402V09:47:46 81.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000010 0.8296V09:48:46 74.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8402V09:49:46 64.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:50:46 61.0'C 1500MHz 0100000000000000000 0.8349V09:
