    Description

    Another perfect Aluminum case for the newly launched Raspberry Pi 4 B. I am pretty sure you will notice that this newly launched powerful credit-card size (nearly) Single board computer (regardless of any RAM size) is quite warm or even hot even during normal operating. You need active cooling for most of the applications. Well, you will love this enclosure. This is a pretty fancy yet practical case designed for Raspberry Pi 4 B, it comes in two main Aluminum alloy parts: the base and the top cover with a lot of air ventilation holes and can also be used to mount the cooling fan (included). Because of the aluminum alloy case, it offers solid, robust yet lightweight solutions to protect the Raspberry Pi 4B, not to forget cooling this powerful SBC too.

    There are only two main parts, simply unscrew the top Phillips screw and detach the top cover, place the Raspberry Pi 4B into the base case, align it with 4 standoffs and secure it with 4 small Phillips screw provided to make sure your SBC does not drop off when you move it.

    There are two more brackets to make it VESA 75x75 compatible, again, secure it if you need to mount this case to an LCD monitor. Of course, the bracket is optional.

    The case with the VESA bracket is compatible with 10.1" IPS HDMI LCD Monitor. Although the monitor stand might be blocking the case, you can actually mount the case in other orientations and other methods, here are some of it:

    Note: You will need M4 screws to mount the case onto VESA 75x75 monitor.

    It offers plenty of inner space, and if you need to access the 40-pin GPIO of Raspberry Pi, there is a gap at the side for you to extend the GPIO out with 40-way IDE cable. It is a perfect casing for educator, beginner, or maker that need to access the 40-pin GPIO.

    Most of the peripheral ports are accessible. That include:

    • 2 x USB 2.0 ports
    • 2 x USB 3.0 ports
    • Gigabit Ethernet
    • 2 x Micro HDMI port
    • USB Type C
    • Audio/Video jack
    • microSD card slot
    • GPIO (via 40-way IDE cable)
    • Indicator LEDs (Power and ACT)

    But the CSI and DSI ports are not accessible from the case.

    The cooling fan is needed for most of Raspberry Pi 4B applications, this enclosure comes with a cooling fan (5V) and it should be mounted onto the bottom side of the top case. The power for the fan should be connected to GPIO, Pin 4 (5V or Red) and Pin 6 (Gnd or Black).

     

    The case reserves the space for:

    • 40-pin GPIO via 40 ways IDE cable like T-Cobbler
    • Cooling fan and mounting holes
    • microSD card slot
    • USB Type C port for power
    • 2 x Micro HDMI port
    • Audio/Video Composite Jack
    • 2 x USB 2.0 Port
    • 2 x USB 3.0 Port
    • 1 x Ethernet Port
    • Processor Heatsink
    • Ethernet & USB Hub IC Heatsink
    • RAM IC Heatsink

    Note: This product is just the case. It does not come with the Raspberry Pi board.

    We have done the stress test (Stressberry) on Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 4GB board. The test is carried out to compare the temperature performance of the Raspberry Pi 4 with this Aluminum case, Fan Off and Fan On. This is just one of the many methods you can use to benchmark the thermal performance of the enclosure or heatsink. The test consists of two parts which are cooling and continue with the stress test. The stress test loads the CPU to 100% and logs the temperature. We have also updated the EEPROM firmware of Raspberry Pi 4 Model B to 000137ad (date: 10 Sep 2019), the thermal performance improved significantly:
