Great Case for Raspberry Pi!

Based on my observations, this case is perfect for anyone who wants easy access to the GPIO pins. The clear transparent design is slick and allows me to see the inner workings of my Raspberry Pi. The case also fits my Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with ease. However, the case may not be as durable as some other options out there. Overall, I highly recommend this case for any Raspberry Pi enthusiast.

Pros
  • Protects and showcases the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+
Cons
  • May limit accessibility to some GPIO pins

Nice case but noisy fan

It's not the prettiest case but it's functional and works well overall. It also allows for pretty decent heatsinks - front and back of the Pi. The only problem is that the fan is pretty noisy. It's louder than the fans on my desktop to be honest. The problem is that it makes this clicking noise when running. I will definitely turn it off. However, it serves its purpose, the temperature has dropped to 10 degrees for me (from 42 ° C to 32 ° C). Although of course I have to buy a new fan.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Doesn't work with Asus Tinkerboard - don't waste time buying it.

Four problems: 1) Tinkerboard is slightly smaller (in length) than the case, so it wobbles inside which causes it. 2) There is only one plastic pin to screw the board into place, making the whole assembly look crooked inside. 3) The tops of the connectors end up inside the case, making it difficult to use USB. 4) I have a heatsink in my tinkerboard - the bottom of the fan touches the heatsink. . So my only option is to play around and swap out the heatsink (and risk damaging the board if I…
