Buy it for the cooler, throw away the case

I bought this item for the Ice Tower cooler because there was none without a case. The case "looked" cool, but I only needed the cooler because I have a Raspberry Pi 4b that I want to overclock. I tried to assemble the case, but the instructions are printed on a small card, it makes no sense, and on a card smaller than a business card, there are only 4 steps. After 20 minutes I removed it and gave up. Looks cool in the pics but be careful.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Sad packaging

Cracked top acrylic layer

The cooler itself is excellent no complaints. But the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the acrylic layers that serve as the casing for your Pi. Firstly it is quite difficult to assemble and when you tighten the top 4 screws they tend to tilt which eventually causes one of the corners of the top layer to break. The cooler is excellent, I tested it up to 2147MHz. I use a software controlled switch to turn the fan on and off, so the fan should last quite a while. instead of staying…

Pros
  • understandable even for the old one
Cons
  • Expensive

Confused by the lack of instructions, but an excellent set.

This is a combination of two items: the original ice tower with a built-in fan and an acrylic sheet case that also contains a fan that is usually mounted horizontally. Since they are two elements, it's difficult to figure out how to assemble them, leaving you with a block where the ice tower actually touches the CPU to transfer heat. You must place the stainless steel tower support legs BETWEEN a few tiers, not over them. Otherwise, despite the lack of instructions, this is a great kit and you…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Functionality

This is a set of two completely different coolers in one box

Whilst I think the seller had this in mind there is no reason to sell these parts in a box. Even if you watch the awful "how-to" video in the description, all you'll see is the poor soul's struggle with the tiny, awkward bits until they're cut into the finished piece (in silence because the video doesn't have a contains sound). . Printed guides are somehow inferior as there are two sets of guides and neither is related to the other. If you love jigsaw puzzles or pieces buy this. Otherwise be…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Will write later

Easy assembly if you follow the video in the product description

So after seeing the review here and then reading reviews on other sites about the fan assembly itself, I was wondering if there was a break somewhere. No, if you look at the item description there is a video showing how to put it all together. The kit includes both an ICE tower cooler and a standard Raspberry Pi case cooler. The case is included and works with both cooling options. All you have to do is follow the video to find out how to assemble it. Very easy assembly with the only slight…

Pros
  • Glitter
Cons
  • There are problems

Excellent cooling, but the case is not directly compatible.

As many other reviews have noted, the cooler and case are great products on their own, but it's clear they were never designed to work together. With a bit of creative assembly and missing one of the body layers, I managed to assemble everything very sturdily and am very happy with it. Instead of the supplied sticky thermal pad for the CPU cooler, I used a small 1mm thick copper plate and installed it with high-quality thermal paste. I can confirm that this is 100% overkill, because at 100%…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have opted for a newer model

Doubles as a fruit fly shredder

Installed a couple of these on a Raspberry Pi in my office and the next day I noticed several dazed fruit flies crawling around trying to take off again. It took me a while to figure it out, but this product's backlit fan and cooling fins combine to make a pretty good fruit fly shredder (while also cooling the Pi). Add a sheet of flypaper in the path of the outflowing air and you end up with something very similar to Katchy's product, but quiet and small. Other reviewers either complained about

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Very expensive
