Icy Box Raspberry Pi Enclosure IB-RP108

[ghrimx]

CPU cooling test with the enclosure from Icy Box IB-RP108.

Cheap case made of 2 aluminiumm plates on plastic frame with 40x40x7 mm fan and alumunium heat sink on CPU.

Test:

Test performed with RPi4B 8Gb running Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye).
External temperature: 23°C
Run: 5 min idle then 30 min max CPU
Config A: stock clock
Config B: over_voltage=4, arm_freq=2000, gpu_freq=600

Results:

Conclusion:

This case does very well in cooling the Pi4B.
One caveat though this case is not designed to carry over the Pi here and there and I think dust will accumulate inside the case and on the fan's blade.
