GeeekPi ABS Case for Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+, with 30mm Fan 30X30X7mm and 3pcs Heatsinks for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B/B+ (Black)

I resurrected a Pi 3 to run OSMC (a Kodi based media player). Temperatures were getting a bit too high even after fitting a processor heatsink. This resulted in a warning “red thermometer” appearing and causes the processor to throttle down. So I looked for a case with a fan. Didn’t want to spend much as there is other hardware available quite cheaply. This case fitted the bill nicely. That it also included three heatsinks for the price was pleasing. The case is well made and fits perfectly. Very easy to put together and feels very solid. I use the fan on the quiet setting and it is pretty much silent. The Pi sits inside a cupboard with a bunch of other media kit so the environment is pretty warm. Resting temp is around 40c going up to 70c playing back media. This is a significant improvement. I’m very happy with this case which offers great value for money. This would now be my first choice of Pi case.

Very impressed with this little housing. Great, sturdy, no frills, black-box housing. Excellent fit, nicely toleranced and well designed. Good instructions too (albeit very small photos and print). Wish I'd got one years ago. Go ahead and protect your Pi.

This is an excellent piece of kit - incredibly well made and supplied with all you need, including a screwdriver. What stops me giving it five stars are two little 'niggles'. Firstly the instructions are truly, utterly, AWFUL. Too small, too brief. The colour photos are tiny, and the steps are not described in enough detail. I have experience of building this kind of thing so it was not a major drawback, but a beginner could have a hard time. The photos on the Amazon page are VITAL when it comes to matching the pins for the fan. The other drawback is that this case has no port for the power/drive lights! Even worse, a big tab to hold the case together comes down right in front of them, so cutting a hole is not that easy. (Oh, and don't over-tighten the screws - the plastic is soft!) OK; pluses? Extremely high quality construction, and looks like something far more expensive. The fan is whisper-quiet in 'slow' mode and everything fits securely. No forcing was required. Nice touch that an extra screw of each type was supplied - they are so small one can easily get away. Blu-tak to hold the screw on the screwdriver is a must (and so is a magnifying glass for connecting the fan pins). Improve the instructions and this is a winner all the way. Sadly without this I can only recommend it for those who are experienced. Reluctantly - four stars instead of the five it really deserves.

Just stuck my Pi 3 B+ into this (so good news for those that have been bitten by the B+ changes) and it's very good. Aesthetics wise, yes it's plastic, but it's a tenner, what do you expect? Anyhow, as plastic goes, it's a nice matt finish, slots together well with no gaps. You get 10 screws, 4 will hold the Pi to the base place, 4 will hold the fan to the top plate, so, yes, you get a spare screw for each! That alone will bump it a star in my book. Assembly instructions are concise, so please read them, they do tell you everything you need to know. The fan will mount either way up if you have a preference but I'd go for the illustrated way. Looking at the temperatures it's saved a few degrees, so that's what you get. A nice case with a fan, well designed, easy to put together, that does have some cooling effect. All in for a tenner, not bad at all. [update] Reading a few of the other comments, yes, the instructions are in 0.01pt font, but as others have pointed out, the Amazon pictures make it clear, or if your eyesight is like mine, use your phone camera. Possibly not obvious for those that have not come across it, the copper heat sink is for the RAM on the underside of the board. Also with respect to possible stripping/breaking of the screw holes, a threadlocker (Loctite Blue is easy to get) will solve any cludges here. Some reported the case covers pin 6, there isn't a lot of room but I had no problems. That's my tuppence worth, in short, recommended.

Ive got around a dozen Raspberry Pis and had different cases over the years. I ordered this one as it looked very similar to another I had which is almost identical however this is better! The quality is excellent! The Pi fits perfectly inside the snap case, easy to open back up if you need access. Very importantly the SD card can be removed and replaced very easy without needing to take anything apart, this was a draw back on my other case. Additionally this comes with a fan which is a nice touch and has mounting holes if you want to fix it to something. The only bad thing I can say about this is the little manual that comes with it for showing you which pins the fan connect to, the print is so tiny it put strain on my eyes, this could easily be solved with a better print out. If I’m to be picky the double back tape for the heat sink, is a little thicker than previous ones I’ve had. Overall excellent product and I’ll will be buying a few more.

Its cheap, easy to assemble, the only screws involwed are for hold rpi in place and for the fan. Case is easy to open for future cleaning from dust etc. Easy acsess for gpio and thumbs up for acsessible sd card slot from outside.

This is a nice little kit, everything fits well and it does significantly reduce the operating temperature of the pi3, however the fan is very noisy. For such a small fan it makes a heck of a racket. A drop of oil did temporarily silence it but within half an hour the fan was noisy again

I bought this purely as it facilitated a fan. So looked for the cheapest possible case. However, it's actually really impressed me. For a tenner, it comes with all the screws, heatsinks and of course the fan. Great fit, looks high end, and suits my requirements perfectly. The instruction leaflet, albeit small, is actually very useful and concise. Well happy, and would recommend.

Excelente y bonita carcasa a buen precio para Raspberry Pi3. Muy fácil de montar, con 3 disipadores auto-adhesivos, ventilador, unas patitas de goma para que quede bien agarrada a la superficie (recomiendo ponerlas si o si para que no se mueva) y todos los accesorios necesarios para montarla. Por cierto, el ventilador conectado a plena potencia/velocidad no hace tanto ruido como he leido en algunos comentarios. No sé porque la gente se queja tanto de esto. A ver, oirse se oye, ya que genera un ligero zumbido, pero no es para nada molesto, a no ser que te lo pegues a la oreja o estés en una habitación insonorizada aislada del ruido exterior. Vamos, que no es para tanto. Ya solo con el volumen normal de la TV y a poco que estés a un par de metros, ni te enteras de que está encendido. Eso si, por ponerle una pega, diré que uno de los disipadores no se puede colocar correctamente en su sitio, ya que el hueco de la carcasa no está del todo bien perfilado. Pero bueno, con el ventilador + los otros dos disipadores que si encajan en su sitio sin problemas, es más que suficiente para mantener la Raspberry refrigerada. En general, la recomiendo totalmente.

J’ai acheté ce boîtier GeekPi pour un Raspberry Pi 3 B+ dédié à la vidéosurveillance. Le boîtier est livré avec trois dissipateurs thermiques, un ventilateur et la visserie nécessaire. On trouve également une notice, mais c’est écrit tellement petit que j’ai dû la prendre en photo pour ensuite zoomer sur l’image ! La carte mère du Pi 3 se fixe parfaitement au fond du boîtier, il n’y a pas de défauts sur les pas de vis ni sur le centrage des trous. Ce boîtier GeekPi est bien ventilé naturellement ; par ailleurs, on peut régler le ventilateur en mode intensif (= bruyant mais efficace) ou silencieux. Une fois le Pi 3 paramétré et installé sur mon meuble, le boîtier noir est discret et se fond parfaitement dans le décor. Je suis satisfait de mon installation ainsi que de ce boîtier GeekPi. Climaxe

My Raspberry Pi with Klipper for 3D printing used to always hit 60C when working. With this case + fan it doesn't go above 40C. These numbers might not be spectacular, but it gets the job done for me. The fan is quite noisy, but for my use case this doesn't matter as the 3D printer is much louder.

Ürün oldukça güzel, pi 3 tam olarak uyuyor, takıp çıkarması kolay. Paket içerisinde bütün vidalar mevcut. Tek sorun fan gürültülü çalışıyor ben çok gerekli görmediğim için fan bağlantılarını kestim.

Materiale plastica rigida ma di ottimo aspetto e robusto, qualità costruttiva ottima , viti in abbondanza e cacciaviti o in dotazione oltre ai piedini adesivi antiscivolo , ventola che in modalità quiet mode non è udibile ( avevo il dubbio che non girasse ) 3 dissipatori adesivi in dotazione. Per il collegamento della ventola io ho seguito lo schema sulla pagina amazon e non quello nel foglietto illustrativo che è completamento diverso ( forse non per Raspberrypi3) appena riavviato il mio Raspberry pi3 con homeassistant ha guadagnato 12 gradi di temperatura (42 contro i 54 di media precedente) nel grafico a destra vedete il calo evidente dopo il cambio case. Otttimo proditore a prezzo ridicolo
