Advantage is I am getting ~20`C temp drop (45`C from 65`C with same workload over just a cooling fan. Looking to find an app or tool to utilize the IR built in. Awesome little case, especially for the money. **Q: Is it possible to use a raspberry pi camera with this case?** A: Actually you can, the pi ribbon cable comes right up and out a thin opening that is hidden by the back hatch. I just did this with my pi cam. Once you fish it through the slit, one side goes straight into the 4's connector and the other side comes out at the edge of the magnetic cover, right in the middle. I've got my cam working perfectly and the cover is closed. **Q: Hi, has the on/off script been tested with Volumio for Raspberry Pi?** A: Yes, the ON and OFF Switch works with Volumio **Q: Can i use my canakit power supply?** A: The power connector is a USB-C, the same as the Canakit power supply for a Raspberry Pi4. Prior versions use a micro-USB connector. So yes if it's a Pi4 power supply. You can also get a micro-USB to USB-C adaptor if your power supply is pre-Pi4. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Summary - I love it! Best case I've ever seen. *by on Reviewed in the United States October 9, 2019* Simply put, the best Raspberry Pi case I've ever seen and purchased. One big pet peeve I have always had with the RPI is the fact the connectors are on all sides of the board, most importantly, that the power and ethernet are on two different sides. For many of my applications this makes for awkward cabling and more complicated positioning. The Argon40 brings all the connectors to the back! Yay!! Finally!!Another pet peeve is that I have to pull out my phone to power down the system... the Argon40 adds a power button to gracefully shut down the system! Yay!! Finally!!Many cases with fans are loud... The Argon40 incorporates two very effective cooling methods... one is using the enclosure as a massive heatsink, and the other is a speed controlled fan. This equals SILENT OPERATION. Yay!! Finally!!My only disappointment was that I could not use a POE board as the case connects to all of the 40 GPIO pins. To get around this, I purchased a POE splitter that has ethernet and USB C cables of equal length coming out of it. Given the Argon40 has both of those connectors on the back, this results in a clean installation!The only caution I have for people is to be careful when inserting the connectors of the board that brings the connectors to the back as it takes some force and it would not be too hard to cause irreparable damage. The case is clearly designed to be built up for the long term and left as is. That is what I plan on doing. The particular system I used the Argon40 in is my primary (I have 2) PiHole / Unbound DNS server. It is headless and is powered by a Unifi switch via POE.Summary - I love it! Best case I've ever seen.EDIT: One potential issue those using this for headless 24/7 systems is that you must press the power button to turn it back on after a power outage. This is obviously a big issue in my case as a power outage or even simple switch reboot can leave me without DNS, and VPN (well not 100% true as I have 2 systems for redundancy.... but... you get the point). I'll see if I can hack this awesome product to make it power on by itself upon power restore while retaining the graceful power off by pressing the button. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easily the best case for cable management and heat management rocks! *by on Reviewed in the United States July 11, 2020* This is a very well thought-out case that works extremely well. The only thing lacking is easy access to the camera CSI slot and display slot -- more on that at the end. But it's still so much better than every other case I've used (and I've used quite a few) that I couldn't give it less than 5 stars.The case is three main pieces (and some internal pieces):The bottom is plastic (tinted but transparent -- you can view the power & activity lights). It has a opening to provide access to the microSD card slot.The main body is a aluminum alloy casting. It has vent slots in it for airflow, but it also has a couple of blocks that are designed to press to the CPU and memory and includes thermal pads. This allows the Pi to transfer the heat to the entire case to provide passive cooling. The passive cooling works *extremely* well! The case has a variable speed fan and comes with software that changes fan speed based on temperature. The default is to use no fan if the Pi is less than 55°C. At 55°C it goes to 10% fan. At 60°C it goes to 55%. At 65°C it goes to 100%. But you can set these to any temperatures and any speeds you want -- it is completely customizable. While I've tested the fan to make sure it works... the case does such a good job dissipating heat naturally through the thermal pads and blocks that transfer heat to the case body ... that my Pi generally never gets above 40°C (I'm using a Pi 4B/8GB). I ran a stress test to peg all 4 CPUs to 100% and after about 10 minutes it finally managed to reach 51°C.... and still never made it to the 55°C temp that would have triggered the fan. As I write this, my Pi is sitting at 36°C and the case is moderately warm because all the heat is transferred to the entire upper body of the case. So I'd say the heat management on this thing rocks!The third part of the case is a magnetic cover for the GPIO pins. The case plugs into the GPIO on the Pi and re-routes the GPIO to the back/top of the case under the cover. When the access cover is removed, the new GPIO header color codes the pins and also provides labels -- making it very easy to find the pins you want.The case also has an internal custom board that plugs into the side of the Pi to connect to power, both HDMI ports, and audio ... and re-routes these to the rear so that *all* cables connect at the back of the Pi making for a much cleaner look -- especially if use the Pi as a desktop. There is an internal board (pre-installed) that has the fan and also re-routes the GPIO access.Lastly, the case has a power button and software that comes with the case monitors the button. A single tap will power up the Pi. A double-tap will reboot it. Holding it for 3 seconds will do a nice shutdown and then cut power. Holding it for 5 seconds will do a forced shutdown (cutting power without waiting for an orderly shutdown).The *only* thing this case doesn't offer is any type of access to the display or CSI camera slots. There actually *is* a slot visible when you remove the magnetic GPIO cover ... and it looks like you could probably manage to route a ribbon cable through this -- but it would need to be done before you assemble the case. I did not actually try this.If you are not using a Raspberry Pi camera that uses the CSI ribbon cable slot or the display that uses the display ribbon slot, then this is definitely the very best case I've used. If you are using either of those two slots, you might want to try a different case. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The only Pi 4 case you should consider *by on Reviewed in the United States October 19, 2019* I don't usually write reviews, however I was so impressed with this enclosure that I felt it was appropriate.I purchased one of these enclosures for testing, as I am building a cluster of Pi's for my homelab and wanted something that would look elegant in my server rack. This is the only case I found that I consider nearly perfect. (More on the "nearly" part later).I was immediately surprised at the size and heft of this case. It is quite a bit smaller than I thought, and also much heavier. Upon picking it up, it instills an immediate feeling of quality. The screws go in smooth as can be, and the tolerances are very tight making everything fit exactly as it should. The labeled and color coded extension of the GPIO pins is incredibly useful and easy to access with the magnetic cover which doubles as the intake for the fan. As for the installation, it couldn't have been smoother. It took about 2 minutes and was as straightforward as can be. I spent longer looking for my screwdriver set than I did actually assembling everything. The instruction manual is printed in high quality full color with detailed instructions, and in fluent English. I did have some trouble getting video output at first, but I eventually found this to be the fault of my Micro HDMI adapters not sticking out far enough to make contact with the connector, not a fault of the enclosure. A quick job of cutting the rubber covering on the adapter back about 0.5mm with a razor fixed this problem. Once booted, I installed the power button/fan control software and it worked perfectly right away. The power button functions exactly as stated in the manual, and it is more useful than you might think. One unexpected thing about the enclosure that I liked is that the indicator lights on the Pi are able to shine through the acrylic on the front of the enclosure for a quick status check. My absolute favorite thing about this case is that it routes all of the connections to the back using an extension board. This makes for an extremely clean setup and easy cable management, and makes it look like a real desktop similar to an Intel NUC.Now for that "nearly perfect" part I mentioned earlier. I do wish Argon40 would've taken the opportunity to convert the micro HDMI to full HDMI internally, eliminating the need for adapters. Even if this came at the small expense of size and cost, the convenience would've been well worth it. My other suggestion would've been to eliminate the USB-C power delivery issue that has plagued the Pi4, since it is powering through GPIO instead of the integrated USB-C connector on the Pi. As far as I can tell, the issue still exists and will not power up with "e-marked" USB-C power adapters, or at least not with the power adapter for my Lenovo X1 Carbon. Not a big deal considering the official Raspberry Pi adapters are relatively cheap, but I feel it is a missed opportunity as type C chargers become more ubiquitous. There may be a technical reason for this that I'm not aware of, so I am not knocking any points.My only real complaint? As of this writing on 10/18/19, this case can only be purchased on Amazon as a bundle with a power adapter or with a Pi 4 whereas I bought it on its own without any accessories. I plan to buy a few more of these, but I already have Pi's and power adapters and would rather save a few bucks by buying the case only.TL;DRThis case is amazing and you should definitely buy it. In fact, I'll go as far to say that it is the ONLY Pi 4 case you should consider if you don't need to use hat's. I know I'll be picking up a few more. ## Frequently Bought Together - Argon ONE V2 Aluminum Case for Raspberry Pi 4 | with Power Button and Fan - Argon USB C Power Supply with Switch | Raspberry Pi 4 Power Supply - Argon ONE M.2 NVME Expansion Board for Raspberry Pi 4 | Supports M-Key M.2 NVME SSD | Only Compatible with Argon ONE V2 Cases --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/157027989-argon-one-v2-aluminum-case-for-raspberry-pi-4-power](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/157027989-argon-one-v2-aluminum-case-for-raspberry-pi-4-power) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-08*
