GeeekPiABS Case with Armor Lite V5 Active Cooler for Raspberry Pi 5, Pi 5 Case with Aluminum Heatsink & Cooling Fan for Raspberry Pi 5 (Clear)

This was a pretty solid case for my Pi 5. Not flashy or "cool" but fully functional and streamlined. Setting it up was pretty easy but the instructions are a little lacking (there are no verbal descriptions, just a set of pictograms that aren't always totally clear). I did end up with a few extra screws and pads which isn't a bad thing. I liked the active cooler. Though it is made from ABS it feels very solid and without holding it in your hands it looks like a more premium metal case.

This works great easy to put together like real easy it comes with all of the tools you need and it’s very quiet.

Works like a charm. My pi was getting up to 80-85 before, but now, running the same programs, it's at a cool 60-65. I believe that that's because the fan, by default, turns on at 60. I'm sure it can make the temperature even lower, but the optimal running temp is something like 70.I tried another case before this one and it was just awful. 10/10 I recommend this one.The only negative was the instructions. Use the plastic bolts to hold the fan in place and the metal screws to hold the case together. The instructions show the metal ones being used in both places, but they're obviously too small for the fan.

This case is well-built, and fits the Raspberry pi very well. Assembly was very straightforward.

Fits the PI5 easily and accurately. It is plastic, and the little nylon feet that are stick on fall off frequently.I particularly like the heatsink with fan, that's probably the best part! Shortly after I got this, I moved on to a 7" display, where I attach the PI directly to the back of the display. Tying to use the heatsink in that configuration I realize that the unit doesn't stick firmly, and tends to fall off. Not sure if the pink "foam" that goes on top of each heat producing unit is supposed to be sticky, but it's not sticky enough to hold the heatsink on if the unit isn't laying flat.

I think this case works great for keeping my Pi 5 cool. It really keeps the heat off of my Pi 5, it was easy to put together, set up, and it definitely keeps my Pi 5 cool while running it for extended periods of time when considering how hot it was getting before. I just feel that it would be better if this case was made of metal, because I believe the plastic keeps in some more heat, and I think it can cause some very minor issues, but other than that, it suits all of my needs.

It feels cheap, but does the job. I don't know if the fan that came with the heatsink actually works. I've never pushed my pi hard enough to get it very warm. The little rubber feet need stronger adhesive.

Good case, good fit.
