“Absolutely brilliant Keeps temperatures under control even when the pi 4 is stressed for long periods of time. Looks good too”

“At rest, the Pi 4 in this enclosure raises around 48°C. With the maximum CPU (not GPU) load, it around to 52°C and then maintains this level. So if you're looking for an efficient passive cooling and don't mind having a 50°C box, this is good.”

“What can I say, a big fan (or not) of FLIRC cases. Not the cheapest, by far and away the best. So, apart from a change of form factor for the Pi4, we have the case as a heat sink. Does it work? Generating DH codes for an hour or so (1 core flat out), the Pi stayed below 50C and the case felt like it matched that, so I would say yes. Better than I would have expected with a sealed case and no ventilation. WiFi concerns? Partially warranted. The case isn't completely aluminium, the bottom is plastic, so while I experienced no issues, the exact orientation of case wrt to antenna may cause a significant(for a given value) drop. Summary, worth every penny.”

“Spread heat from CPU to the whole case, and the case looks really fancy.”

“I got two FLIRC cases for my new Pi 4s They are well made and run very nicely. I also bought a case for one of my Pi 3s and likewise it's well made and runs very nicely”

“I recently got the PI 4 to go alongside my earlier PI 3 B+ purchase which I have set up as a retro gaming gaming PC. These devices are absolutely fantastic, my kid loves the gaming PC and will no doubt love the PI 4 media PC I am going to set up. So far I have just been tinkering with it but it is a great product and the aluminium case looks absolutely spot on, will look great next to the TV. Order and delivery was easy as PI with delivery coming via DHL who get in touch prior to delivery which was just as well as I needed to redirect mine to a pickup point. Cant reccomend the product and the store enough and will be using them again in the future.”

“As with all previous Flirc cases, this for the Pi 4 is made to a high standard. Rubber upper and lower the main body is one piece aluminium. Also acting as a large passive heat sink the case does get warm / hot. The processor gets to about 62deg under heavy load but nowhere near the 80deg threshold for CPU throttling. Access to all ports and indications is excellent with the obvious exception of the GPO - this can be accessed via a separate ribbon cable. All in the best Pi case on the market.”

“I've always wanted one of these cases and after reading about the temperature issues after buying my Raspberry Pi 4 I decided to get one. Apart from looking good I can feel how warm the case gets so in my mind I feel it is doing its job. On top of that I did do some before and after temperature tests and it does make a big difference when the Pi is in the case.”
