I've never been disappointed by iUniker stuff. They us 3M heat tape and higher quality fans than most. Only trouble I ever had was with dead pixels on their 3.6" IPS display; but that could easily be because I've pulled it on and off about a thousand times so far.
Finally a decent looking case with place for a fan. I've been looking everywhere.
I really don’t like how the instructions literally has four tiny pictures and no words. Thank you
Could you do a video on swapping the fan for say a Noctua one?
That is a nice case. Will look at this one when I do get my hands on a Pi 4.
I bought a Pi4 at Bestbuy and it was $100 and it included this case along with a few other things. I had thought about going with one of those Ice Tower cases but after watching this I think this will work just fine for me. I have mine overclocked to 1850 ATM think I might go ahead and try and push it higher though.
I just woke up but I had to watch
It looks pretty good. It's a very simple design.
Nice can't wait to get my hands on a Raspberry Pi
I found it funny how the longest time people kept insisting that pulling air off the heatsinks worked better, and from like 2015-early 2019 people KEPT spreading this misinformation that it magically allowed for air to create a up drift lifting hot air off the heatsink was better then cooling the heat sink not realizing that blasting it with air ALSO draws hot air off the heatsink AND cool air blasts the HOT air making it not hot.
Thank you for ACTUALLY explaining it instead of just saying "Just f*ckin' trust me bro" like in the video lol.
Really nice commercial for the Flirc case! Flirc is solid state..no moving parts...no noise.
Very nice value for money! Im pickin one up!
Helpful video but it is irritating when you speed up the cameras. E.g., when setting up the fan, rather than referring to the manual on how to do 3V vs 5V, you could easily explain that in 30 seconds to make it self contained
I used this as an install video - which was super helpful. I wish you'd cautioned about the fan install - I'm pretty sure that I initially installed it the way you did and then had to pull it off and rotate 180 because the wires don't reach all the way across the case. Still - thanks so much!
Not bad at all for the price. C4labs also makes decent cases but a little more expensive as its American made. Also one of the few "Lincoln log" cases to have actual side covers and a case stand.
what temps do you get if it was running at 5 volts?
Thks for this review, really usefull.
A good case that I found on Amazon for $10 is the Geekpi Acrylic Case for the Pi-4. I put the fan on the outside of the case and use a 15x15x15 Adafruit heatsink. I used all the other heatsinks in the kit and I never see above 44C. Overclocked to 2 Ghz Overvolt=4 and GPU 600.
I have that one. It's the same case as the iUniker. I got the clear one for £9.99 which in the UK is a bargain.
I really wish a compact case like this with a 2.5" hdd bay under it. It'll be perfect for a SMB share of games to go with my PS2/3
Not using any heat sink is just plain crazy. At 80C I’m surprised the pi even functions. Nice video.
Wow, you didn't sleep 😁😂
Nice video 👍
Really nice caes for that price, I think for the most people this will be enough cooling.
What's better for cooling
I'm just using a black smraza Pi 4 case. Same turnout as this one. Had it for a while now. 1 1/2 months maybe. 5V makes barely any noise.
A small detail overlooked but it isn't an issue on this low powered computer.
The heatsink fins should go in the same direction to make sure the air blows in the same direction when leaving the heatsink.
Will this case provide adequate cooling running overclocked at 2.1ghz? I currently have this case, and would like to overclock.
It would be great to have temp results with overclocking
late reply as a sew pi user and with this case. pi4 @2ghz idle is around 36c and load around 50c
ARGON ONE for pi 4 will become your next favorite case
great video, thanks for the explanation. Can you just be more specific were you connect the wires for the 3.3 config?
Not bad for the value .thanks
Looks nice. I grabbed the flurk. Im waiting on retropi official. It is taking a lot longer then i thought. Only reason i am waiting is cuz of that power adapter problem on the p4.
Any news of the pi4 power issue will get address. That is if it will come. I think the official power supply works fine. I kinda wanted one with a power switch. Those outlet switches at the outlet store works thou.
I have always used those little Pi Fan's on both 5v or 3.3v, the older they get the louder they get
Are we going to get a new retroflag snespie case, my 3b+ with active cooling ceramic heat sinks, fully over clocked, has never over heated and it's pretty quiet.
If only there was a way of mounting a Raspberry Pi III/IV inside a Little Devil PC-V10 in such a way that the cooling probe could be used to cool the Raspberry Pi down to -70 degrees below zero but the condensation would kill the raspberry Pi unless the Raspberry Pi is sprayed with something to protect the electronics from the condensation.
Hey, any chance at finding a pi zero case that also fits the Zero4U USB hub? I love the little thing and it's a great value add for the zero/w, but the only case I found that wasn't an open acrylic was a thingaverse case.
Can you test w/ fan and no heat sink? Great videos!!!
Whenever I click the Amazon link in the description to go to the case, it says it's for the pi 3
Question: How do you know which way the air is blowing/sucking from the orientation of the fan?
Can you fit the POE HAT with this case?
Please upload the video about demul [naomi 1 and naomi 2] on emulationstation
🤔We will get one or more mini heatsink for the powered chips? In infrared camera it shows the power chips heats as much as the cpu.
I wonder how well it does with overclocked Pi?
Hi I have a question . At what ambient room temperature were you running these tests? Because couldn't that affect the performance of the cases ,especially the ones that have no active cooling?
The video has text in the bottom that says ambient is 23.3*C 74*F
Hi, is it possible to make this setup active? So that the fan only spools up if the CPU temp goes above 70 for example. If you could make a vid about that that'd be awesome!
thank you
From the look of it this case should be compatible with the Ice Tower(sans the grating lid). Can you confirm? Apparently my Pi4 runs hotter than most. With the Flirc it idles at 49-53C in a 75F room. It does top out at 73C max.
Hey man , aweome video , can you test the latest lakka +overclock , while testing this case and the flric one pleeeease :)
Also Greeeeeat video thank you!!
It's really irritating how he never tests an OC pi 😞
the 2 extra degrees are not worth the noise it would make in my opinion. so better go with the Flirc case, unless those extra couple of bucks are so important for you.
but to me it looks cooler and it is more silent. so it's worth those extra 5 bucks.
i guess depending on where the case would be placed, the flirc case may not be enough though...
Is it normal for the fan still to be active after shut down?
Some one can tell me with which Noctua we can replace this fan.
ETA, are you going to cover the new ps1 core for retroarch on New 3DS? It's supposed to run at full speed in many cases.
EDIT: Just tried this out and it requires converting isos/bin cue into CHD format so that fmvs don't stutter. Games won't run at full speed unless they're fairly simple. Any graphical effects will make the framerate take a big hit.
There is a new case by these people which makes the case the heatsink without a fan
many reviews reported hdmi cable fitment issues. did you experience any>?
awesome
fun fact: that case in italy is 21€ (23$)
You can also buy the GeeekPi case from Amazon Italy, it's the same desing but a little bit cheaper.
Stil waiting for d result of the give away man
I'm a north Carolina native and I need a good gaming PC, laptop, tablet something that can play ps2 games at full speed you seem to know alot about putting one together how much do you charge
Good deal.
I'd love to see a case for that Ice Tower lol.
You could probably get one 3d printed yourself.
I doubt there really is a market overall, for such a case, thats why you have not seen one.
@@andyhello23
Probably. But I don't own a 3d printer. I could possibly look at services online for such a task.
Currently I'm holding off on a Rpi4 until the scene matures more.
Can't seem to find this case anywhere for a pi 4 SBC. Does anyone have a link to it ?
For only 10 dollars its indeed powerful enough to manage.
how do i get the fan to turn on? my fan wont turn on ehrn i plug it in
Heatsinks pull heat away from the chips so setting the fan in pull to pull that heat out of the case should perform better.
But it doesn't. Keeps dust out better though.
If it pulls air out it has a harder time getting new air in (negative airflow) and when you push new air over it since it's in a case it would have better airflow because it's getting new cool air over the heatsinks.
@Shadan Rikan then explain it.
The big problem is.....
None of these custom cases are available in India ☹️...
So I have to attach a 40mm fan with rubber bands to the original case with no top 😅
I just got this case plugged fan like it recommended but fan will not work
That link is to a PI3 case!
I purchased a similar case over a year ago. The problems I had was the fan started to rattle as the screws came loose.
Loctite or glue on the screw thread should help
You don't sleep uh? 😂
Yeah, it looks like aluminium cases will be the standard. Will you get a Argone One case?
@Shadan Rikan Huh, I never thought of that. I haven't seen or read any reviews that said the flirc case kills the wifi or bt. I had the old flirc case and don't remember it having difficulty connecting to wifi.
👍
I purchased this in clear and black, the finishes are nice but very poor quality on part to part fitment. The bottom panel to middle section doesn't snap together tight. Also outer strip GPIO pins has 4 pins partially blocked due to middle section female connection points for top part male connectors. Do not buy any of these cases even though thermals are good. HDMI doesnt seat all the way, so if you bump the wire the screen flickers or goes black.
Please place links that are not from a site amazon Forbidden in Morocco
Get a vpn
You choose push air ? Ouwh.. Same idea
Is there a case that goes with the Ice Tower? I really want to get that one when I get Pi 4, but I want a case for a little protection.
ModMyPi made a modular Pi case with spacers for the Pi 3, but I don't know if they already made a Pi 4 version.
In my country you will get the case at 6.50usd!
*WHEN ARE YOU ANNOUNCING THE GIVEAWAY WINNER/S*
And why do you hide the connection of the fan while you are saying that's very easy?
Flirc looks better and performs within range.
Room temperature 23.33 ,repeating of course ,degrees celsius
Leeeroyyy
My case only came with two heat sinks...
So that’s it right? No annoying script?
زين
I only had 3 heat sinks in my kit...didn't have two small ones so my ethernet chip doesn't have one. Anybody else?
They literally say the box has instructions, just follow those. If I could read those why would I need to watch your video?
Those plastic cases sucks... Metal cases/heatsinks like Biqu rulz! And are silent...
All this tells me is you are a fool if you don't get the flirc case, also their remote is so easy.
Lies it's 10.99 lol 😂
All these cases are like $9 overpriced 😂
😂
@@ETAPRIME pardon me for the stupid question: how can I mount this case behind a monitor? There are two "+" on the bottom but I don't know exactly what to do. Thank you so much!
Sweet!!!
Btw I'm a small CZcamsr any support would be appreciated 🙂💪
