Aluminium Armour Dual-Fan Heatsink Case for Raspberry Pi 5
Once it is assembled great.
The connector for the FFC cable is unacceptably poor. Rather than use a latch, such as the one on the PI, they tried to save a few pence & used a piece of plastic with 2 prongs that are only 1/3 of a mm thick. They know that it is not fit for purpose, & provide a spare piece of plastic.
As the friend who assembled it for me said, "When they built the first prototype, & saw how fragile it was, they should have redesigned the connector.

Aluminium Armour Dual-Fan Heatsink Case for Raspberry Pi 5
Straight out the box, this felt great, good weight to it and very little struggle to put it together. Easily fits over the Pi5 and the fans kick in when they need to, even without the software. I'm using it along with the Pi5 for a Batocera setup and it performs extremenly well for such a small form fan set. Comes with the thermal pads, which you need to stick on BEFORE you assemble. Once that's done, it's a few screws and it's working. Nice and easy with the addition of the fan socket on the Pi5, all in all, took me less than 5 minutes to assemble.

Aluminium Armour Dual-Fan Heatsink Case for Raspberry Pi 5
Works perfectly with the pimoroni nvme base - just grab some 6mm M-F standoffs. Also managed to overclock the pi's CPU to 3GHz with this case with the temperature holding at 75degC max. Overall a great case!

Aluminium Armour Dual-Fan Heatsink Case for Raspberry Pi 5
Keeps the Pi super cool, especially compared to other projects using passive only cooling. Fans can seems a bit whiny, but what do you expect from them.

Aluminium Armour Dual-Fan Heatsink Case for Raspberry Pi 5
Fits well on the Pi 5 and seems to do a pretty good job at cooling it. Fans are pretty quiet too.

Good quality case & heat sink with dual fans. Seems to work fine, only turns on when the processor gets too hot.
