Here are a few cases that are designed to move heat away from the processor and out of the case. With this action comes more heat from the chip which naturally needs to be dissipated adequately. Many people have already proven that they can eek out more performance by upping the clock-speed and the voltage of the processor. It’s no secret that the Raspberry Pi can be overclocked and pushed harder than the chip is designed to be run. Like the official RPi case, there is a cut-out on top for a small 2″ TFT display screen to sit behind the clear plastic cover. There are 2 screw mount holes on the bottom as well. When completed, we had a sharp looking wood and plastic case for our RPi. The case comes with a simple, yet abundantly clear set of instructions on a single business card.Īssembly was kind of fun and only took about 10 minutes. The case is made out of sheets of acrylic and wood and are assembled by the user around the RPi. Thanks for confirming this! I ordered one myself but it hasn't arrived yet.C4Labs makes a bunch of other Raspberry Pi cases and the C4Labs Zebra case is one of the smartest looking ones as well. There are multiple cables on the linked page, which differ mainly in how their connectors are oriented, but they all have the same narrow connectors. I got a reply from Flirc which reassured me that these cables really do fit, so I bought one, and it does.
I have left a message about this on the Flirc site, and will post their response in due course. I am not really inclined to buy a cable 'on spec' without more reason to think it really is different. seem to stick out as much as) those on the cables I have, and the specs do not include connector width. The connectors on all the ones which have images look like (i.e. I now see the FAQ entry, but the link points to a page with a table with multiple cables listed. I haven't tried it myself, if you do please let us know if it fits.
There's a FAQ on the Flirc RPi 4 case page where question 9 specifically adresses the gpio ribbon cable issue: I haven't seen anything like this available. For a connector to work with the Flirc case, I think that it would need to be moulded on to the wire, with little or no overlap at the ends. Almost any 'filing down' will damage or destroy these clips, and the connector will then come apart and lose contact with the cable wires with minimal disturbance.
The connectors I used then, and the ones that seem to have been used on the commercial ribbon cables I have now, come in two parts which are clamped together over the cable and held together by clips on both ends of the connector. I used to make my own ribbon hookups for IDE drives, since this allowed me to use the exact length of cable that fitted best for a given case/motherboard/drive location combination - improving both access and cooling. You'll probably need to file it down to 52mm in order to have the cable fit to narrowest top part of the pillars, but this is not recommended as it will surely weaken the connector. Well checking again the ribbon pin1-to-pin40 distance is about 51mm (again you may correct me on this) It may be a "stupid idea" but have you tried filing the sides of the ribbon connectors to reduce the overall length? In my measurement, the 40-pin ribbon connector's length is about 55.5mm (correct me on this), while the pillar to pillar widest distance is 53mm so definitely a 40-pin ribbon connector's 55.5mm will not fit. I confirm this on the RPi3B+ version of the FLIRC case (just took mine from storage to verify pfletch101's concern)
