Awesome Pi video mate .. Nice Argon neo 5 :)
Deffo feels nice too, think it will last as well
Good info, thanks for sharing. Been impressed with Agon cases having one for a Pi4. This video has got me tempted to look at a Pi5 now..😂
I love the pi4 version, looks better than this but the cooling performance is far better than the flirc with noise levels so low you could still use it under the TV for media
Great looking case. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to seeing how the pi5 runs some emulation 😂
You know it its a beast
@@CaptainCommodore I bet it will emulate the 360 and ps3 stuff really nice .. Youll have to let see it when youve got it sorted mate ..
Thank you for this review. The Argon Neo 5 really looks like a great case/ cooler for the Pi 5. I guess, I'll have to order two for both of my Pi 5s.
I have one. Putting on the thermal pads that come with it is a bit tricky. They are fragile and you have to peel off the stickers from both sides.
Where as the standard fan from Rasp Pi foundation had the thermal pads already stuck to the fan, so you just peel off one side. No issue.
You did much neater job than me in putting the pads on!
Good video, nice case. If i want to connect a bottom NVME HAT. Is there a gap for the ribbon cable in the case? I see somthing over the SD Card slot but im not sure if a ribon cable will fit.
Will have a look when I get home, but I don't recall seeing a slot that would support that as at a minimum it would require a different base, may be possible to 3d print one though
What is the script to install and configure the fan anyone ?
I'm sure the fan is set to run by default
@@CaptainCommodore ah well it doesn't with me the argon one case had a small app you could run to change what temperature it came on etc
Probably the best active coooling case. I find the noise noticeable compared to silent passive ones I've used in prior generations of pi! For me, no moving parts was a huge appeal of this mighty little platform but alas, that era of SBCs look to be over
If your not concerned about overclocking the flirc I tested in the previous video is also very nice..... and silent
Very nice looking case, with good cooling. How does it stack up to the others on price?
It's not too bad pihut has them for £18
I'd like to buy extra thermal pads for the rest of the components. What should be the thickness?
I'm not sure but they looked around 1.5mm , although if your slightly too thick it shouldn't matter as it will be compressed
@@CaptainCommodore Thank you for the fast reply. I appreciate it.
@@CaptainCommodore I got my Argon Neo 5 case today and was able to measure the thickness of the thermal pads; it's 1mm.
very nice review, but I have question.
Can you see the leds of the power and sd card dusy in the case?
Yea , the power button is frosted so the whole button lights up really well, prefer the button on the argon to the flirc too
also when its reading the sd card?@@CaptainCommodore
@MrFixer1983 the button does flicker red and green although it shines the green through more, I'm not sure that the green light is sd access though
Oh, no monkey-fisting! :D
All joking aside though mate, another nice review and video, thanks for sharing. That case looks very sweet indeed.
Cheers chap, congrats on v5 hope your still up for the live stream when my turn comes round again ?
@@CaptainCommodore many thanks bud. And sure, still up for that. :)
fan not working at all, just check it and then reply. its not working with cpu stress.
It's hardly possible to buy an actual RPi 5, but you can at least buy a case.
Yes but that's a testament too how popular they are, I only got my pi5s for Xmas.......
Very bad looking when compared to previous version of the case
Yea , it doesn't look as nice as the pi4 version, but feels solid and performs really well
