Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Fan stats spinning when the cpu temp goes above 50c (configurable in the pironman command line utility). Attractive case with an actual cooling plan. The fan is quiet and it is more than just a novelty.

The tutorial online is great and i'd def recommend. Easy instructions to follow and video to watch. Super detailed instructions and amazing case.

The case is easy to assemble and the instructions were easy to follow and clear. The pironman site is very helpful with assembly and loading the software. When the sata ssd arrives i will update and let you know how i did and put pictures up.

I my opinion this case is the best of the “taller” cases you can get. It certainly looks adorable however it is significantly bigger than the pie by itself or even with the daughter board.

This works absolutely brilliantly and is the best pi 4 case i have ever had. And that is why i would suggest this case to others. As a bonus, their customer service is top notch!



Cons

The pi is fine, but the pironman mainboard does nothing now. It did not brick my pi.

Quality


The ports are sturdy and all cables fit snug.


This works absolutely brilliantly and is the best pi 4 case i have ever had.


The fan doesn't really turn on at all unless there is a heavy load on the cpu.


2 ssd while your assembling the case because it's a pain if you install a shorter card after the case has been built.

Price


It is a little bit on the pricey side which is why i’m only giving it four stars.


This along with the price knocks off one star.


I will be honest in that i am on the fence about if the price is appropriate for what this is.


Overall, i think this is an excellent product even if the asking price is a bit steep at $79.

Shipping


It arrived very fast after ordering it, so while waiting for my m.


Sending in a support ticket received a response quickly and they were able to walk me through a fix to the problem.

Yes, you can run a pi with no case, or any box, but this one looks great.


It comes packed with a ton of stuff for a really complete mini tower computer .


Assembling this case was satisfying; it comes packaged with a physical assembly guide, but i used it in tandem with the online ...  Read More

Competitiveness


I was using a similar type cooler that also had rgb on it, but this case is so much better.


My pi is currently running a plex media server, and doubles as a really cool looking nas on my bookshelf.


There are similar cases that are cheaper.


Compared to other cases this case is relatively easy to get its hardware working.
