Amazing computer component case

This case is amazing, solid aluminium, good workmanship, good fit. If you are looking for a Raspberry Pi case, I would highly recommend this case.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Something's wrong

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No problems installing

Everything came up. The box was well made upon delivery. The top closes with a magnet. What I can't tell yet is if it's blocking the Wi-Fi signal or if the magnet plays a role in affecting the electronics on the board. It is made of good materials and looks very nice. I recommend it as I haven't tested it yet.

Pros
  • In stock
Cons
  • Slightly torn

2nd run. in Computers and Accessories

This is my second NEO as the first one had no fan and also arrived cosmetically damaged. IMHO NEO should not be used without a fan helmet as when comparing the performance/temps with and without the fan it wasn't clear why. With no fan, I reached over 170 degrees Fahrenheit. With the fan hat on and off, I averaged 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The main problem is removing the cover during use, otherwise the heat will just roll in without escaping. I had a rough time with NEO when it hit the highest…

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • There are nuances

Its worth it! Electronics

This case is worth it! The fan hat gives your Pi the ability to shut down, restart, and force shut down with the push of a button.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • A few minus points

Small design glitch with fan mount, also perfect as it is

Because this case looks so nice, easy to assemble and because you can spread just enough thermal pads for CPU/RAM/USB controllers. . The case looks great and there are two extra screws on the bottom. Then comes the fan cover/nozzle. I like that technically it doesn't block I/O, but it's a little tricky to connect to the GPIO pins. The body allows for this attachment, but the problem lies in the structural support of the hat. The side opposite the pin connectors rests on the stop and if desired…

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Embarrassing

Nice case, nice touch to turn on the fan, but the fan version is a must.

Switch on the ventilation in the bonnet using the magnet. I think the goal would be to keep it as dust free as possible and protect the pins. If you have a cover and fan, remove or replace the cover. Attempting to use the fan cover will only make the device hotter. Overall the case looks good and the fan could be more comfortable with a better cover. It would also be nice if you could mount it, but I think a few Velcro fasteners on the underside and on the wooden shelf would be ok. I think I…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Almost everything is included

Bye Apple TV, hello Raspberry Pi

I followed the online instructions and YouTube videos, put everything together, no complaints, very satisfied, no missing parts or falling magnets, there's glue for that by the way. Overall I am satisfied with my purchase. Update January 9, 2020: I've since installed the Kodi media center, can watch all of my 4K content streaming from my NAS network, and I've recently installed Retropie on my Raspbian desktop. Now I can watch movies and play retro games from Arcade Mom to PSX. Lots of…

Pros
  • Sturdy workmanship
Cons
  • Sad hardware
