I will post a Unix Tutorial project about this once ready. I’m going to attempt Kali Linux install on this Raspberry Pi 4 – if it works it should be a great little security appliance to have on my home office network. Still, the price and delivery options are quite good so I can totally recommend them. I got mine from PiHut, where it runs out of stock pretty regularly. Raspberry Pi 4 in FLIRC case Buying FLIRC case for RPi 4 Here are some of the photos – looks pretty neat and these top and bottom plastic panels on the case are super smooth and comfortable to the touch. I think it’s a big deal because previous models of Raspberry Pi could work without overheating (I remember buying special heatsinks for Raspberry Pi 3 memory chips though), but current model is so versatile and powerful that it may need CPU to be running at full capacity to provide comfortable desktop environment. I just received a flirc case for the raspberry pi 3B and upon receiving it when I tried installing the thermal pad thing it tore apart. It’s made of aluminum which means heat from the RPi4 CPU is dissipated rather efficiently without help of any fans. That’s why I figured FLIRC case should be fun. They’re made to withstand incredible temperatures, but assume you would take precautions and ensure adequate cooling to extend their lifespan. Running overheated is not healthy for most of PC components. Not that I plan to be running my Raspberry Pi 4 under constant 100% CPU load for all 4 cores, but I want this little system to be stable. FLIRC case for Raspberry Pi Why FLIRC case is a Big DealĪpparently, Raspberry Pi 4 is so powerful that CPU throttling (slowing CPU down when it’s too hot) becomes a real issue.
