“I have an application in air traffice simulation with a loading over 90% on the four cores of a Raspberry Pi 5. The Armour heat sink keeps the core temperature below 70 degrees C.”
“I like these cases because they are passive and are quite substantial conducting heat away from the active devices on the Pi5. I have had too many fan failures on other cooler devices due to my need for a 24/7 server availability. This will be my 5/6 Pi5 coolers and about 10+ of the older Pi4 version so I really do like them. They are also reasonably inexpensive too.The extra heatsink pads are handy too. The only difficulty I have experienced is mounting NVMe boards which have to be underneath and the supplied cable is only just long enough and I have had to obtain 25mm long M2.5 set screws to replace those supplied.”
“Perfect case. Simple, only two pieces which go top and bottom if your computer fastened by four screws. I can vouch for the "armour" , name I've already dropped it fromm a desk into hard floor ,almost a metre drop and it still works perfectly+ there is no noisy fan. In conclusion in my opinion it is the best case for your computer.”
“The case fits the Pi 5 perfectly and is keeping the device cool enough with the added bonus of no noisy fan. Having the GPIO pins accessible too is a great bonus.”
