Same as another review re fit... The internal screw to hold the board wouldn't line up, I realised that the side with HDMI, power etc. wasn't fitting properly. Worked out that the USB-C power hole was misaligned and needed to be made bigger towards the end away from the other ports. Used a small drill bit spinning in drill to file enough off to allow it to fit properly, it then sat flush supported by the port side and screwed in. For ease, assembly is:- Offer board up, ports to port holes, they should fit in and then you can screw silver screw in place to hold the board, it should be level with case not an angle like mine till I made the USB-C hole bigger. Then offer up either end in turn and screw from bottom, USB/Ethernet end is fairly self explanatory. MicroSD end make sure you have the recessed bit facing out, even then the card is fiddly. Add top cover noting the slight edge on one side to allow cable access on the GPIO.

The metal case itself is fine, only minor jiggling to get the R Pi 4 in place. Only one screw provided to hold the Pi firmly, except it didn't fit. Only 3 screws to hold the box together (should be 4). No rubber feet provided. Not recommended.

For the price the case is nice but I did have to file the USB C slot a tiny bit to get the board to fit in. Also another standoff would be nice to, as the board rattles a little with just the one.

It needs a kit to add a 2 fan aluminium CPU and GPU cooling facility inside the ventilated portion of the box.

Great robust stylish case. A little fiddly (small screws) to put together and no provision for the RPi camera.

Unfortunately I had to bend part of the case to allow the board to fit on the standoff. Otherwise looks good and lots of room inside to fit a fan shim + heatsink.
