Raspberry Pi 4 Aluminium Alloy Case With Cooling Heatsink

My Raspberry PI 4 in the standard case was seeing CPU temperatures of between 65 and 75 degrees C (and sometimes up to 80 degrees C) which I was concerned about. I recently purchased one of these cases with the aim of moderating the high temperatures. I was pleased to find that the case reduced the operating temperatures by almost 20 degrees, and the CPU temperature now varies between approximately 45 and 55 degrees C.

You can find a blog post about my experience with the case here:

The supplied thermal tape disintegrated and was unusable. Otherwise a good heatsink.

This little item certainly takes the heat out of the Pi4.

The heat sink case is very compact, and well made. It keeps the SoC easily cool enough for normal use, but I have not yet run my PI4 to high CPU usage to check that aspect. Installation is easy with only one caution - the flexible thermal pads used to connect the board components to the raised pads of the heat sink are neither easy to remove from their protection, nor physically robust. Take care, take it slowly and remove the white side carefully. The clear side is easier to remove.

Easy to install and keeps it cool
