LoveRPi 2018 Active Cooling Media Center PC Case for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, Libre Computer Board, ASUS Tinker Board (Black)

Wow. I'm actually pleasantly surprised by this case. Having bought many different styles of cases for my various single board computers, I can say that this case really stands out from the others. Despite it's affordable cost, this case does not feel cheap at all. The plastic is high quality and finished very well. All of the seams line up properly and everything fits tightly together. There is sufficient space inside to house the SBC of your choice (I've tested Raspberry Pi 3 B and Tinker Board) with heat sinks attached. The fan quite powerful for a fan of this size and works nicely in either high or low power mode. For maximum power, attaching it to the board's 5VDC pin provides the most airflow while attaching to the 3.3VDC pin provides a near silent experience. The corners on this case are shaped nicely and it's apparent that the designers have paid attention to aesthetics. The addition of mounting slots and the inclusion of rubber feet offer two nice ways of placing the board and case exactly where you need it. Very good product.

This case is easy to get in and out of and the board is held securely even without the screws by the clips, but can be removed when needed without any fuss or worry about damaging the board or the case. I also love the translucent side which allows you to still use an IR remote (if that's your thing) and see the LEDs on the board, while dimming them ALOT. I have the Le Potato and they somehow managed to install 3 mini Suns on this baddie. The fan is fairly quiet, but does have a kind of electrical hum rather than the usual air churning noise you would expect from a small form factor fan. This is easily the cases weakest offering, but honestly, I don't hear it from across the room with the TV on so I can't complain. If you are sensitive to sounds you might want to consider installing a different fan. I would say look at another case if you think the fan might bother you, but I really do think this is one of the best for the price.

This is not the most good looking case, but it is functional and works well overall. It allows for a quite decent size heatsinks as well - on the front and on the back of the pi. The only problem is the fan is quite noisy. It is honestly louder than the fans in my desktop. The problem is that it makes this clicking-like noise when running. I will definitely have to disable it temporarily. It does get the job done, though, the temp fell up to 10 degrees for me (from 42C to 32C). I will have to get a replacement fan though, for sure.

Very sleek design. Perfect for what I need!

Nothing to dislike here, it fits an ASUS Tinker Board perfectly with a heatsink fitted. This is the heatsink that came with the board that I measured to be 8-9mm high (hard to measure with a 12" plastic ruler when on the board) anything taller is probably not going to fit as it only just clears the fan casing. The cooling fan while audible, is not loud, not to me at least whether you connect to the 3,.3v or 5v pin, the difference between 3.3v and 5v was barely noticeable too. The case is aesthetically pleasing and functional, it includes 4 small stick on feet and 4 screws, 3 of which secure the board to the base of the case, the fourth secures base and top of case together. The screws are not really needed as the two halves of the case fit together snugly, but nice to have nevertheless.
