Review on ๐Ÿ“ฆ GeeekPi Acrylic Case with Cooling Fan and Heatsinks for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (Only for Pi 4) - Black and Clear by Troy Larson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love electronics

My first Pi (with a Pi 4 supplied by OKdo in the UK) and first case and everything looks great. The black plastic layer surrounding the heatsinks was blocked by the 4th ethernet heatsink so I cut off that plastic and the two separate pieces of this layer fit together perfectly. I had no trouble installing the fan and there seems to be enough room for the HDMI cable ports. I like it and it looks quite edgy. The small screwdriver is for fan screws only, not case screws, so you'll need a larger Phillips head. ========= Update: After several days of use in a 75F room without doing anything too intense, the CPU temp doesn't seem to go above 50ยฐC (122ยฐF). I can't hear the fan and will buy this case again. My neighbor saw this case with the Pi 4 and wants me to repeat the full purchase for her as she thinks the size is safe - she can easily take it with her.

Pros
  • Pleased
Cons
  • Sad packaging
