Happy Easter! I woud say the Argon Neo5 case is the first case that I have seen that makes the Raspberry PI 5 a compelling concept to build and use. It has nice cooling and ig buttons up all the components in a nice, tidy package that would be nice to add to the stack of gear on my desk that runs all of my operations. Although, the PI5 is a bit of overkill for the Pi-Hole/DNS Server that my current Raspberry PI functions.

Argon cases are a cut above other RPI cases. I've owned a couple for several years now - original and the one with the m.2 SATA 'basement extension' (I purchased a second extension to upgrade the original.) and have been very pleased with them. They ARE a bit expensive, but they solve the problem of having to use micro hdmi cables, and aren't especially any more expansive than a good case with an SSD hat. They did still required the USB jumper to connect the 'basement extension'. The NEO looks like a total solution designed from the ground up to take advantage of current technology, and at about the same price. We win!

One small thing… when measuring air cooling, it’s important to take into account the ambient (room) temperature because it’s directly related to the result. Cooling efficiency is about how close to ambient the temperature reaches, not just to what absolute temperature it gets. For example, in a room with say a 10 degree higher temperature, it’ll be cooled to 10 degrees higher. That said, appreciate the video as always, nice job, thanks.

Argon makes great stuff for the pi ecosystem. I almost wish this case was available when I bought my Geekworm case. But I need the mounting options that the geekworm provides and my case IS all aluminum and wall mountable. Both are winners and both have great NVME solutions. I can't say enough about the pi5 performance with an MVME drive. This thing boots way faster than any Windows box, and everything is so snappy!

Hello Chris, happy Easter! I'am using this case for a few weeks now. Initially, I used a Kingston KC3000 SSD (512GB PCIe 4.0, with DRAM cache), which reached temperatures of around 62°C. I then switched to a WD SN570 (1TB, without DRAM cache), and it now operates at a much cooler temperature of around 40°C. I'm running Home Assistant on this Raspberry Pi, and it's possible that the frequent writing causes a lot of data transfer from the DRAM to the flash memory. I'm not entirely sure, but it could be related to the Home Assistant OS.

6:40 - I was testing this case and had the exact same thought! That fan cable routing is just plain weird. Once I got it in place, it was fine... but getting it to stay was tough. And the first time, I didn't realize the PCIe cable had to go in that other slot, so I had to pop it back apart and start over! It is a nice case once together though.

I tend to agree similar with you: at some point they will figure how to get the experience / image right into the head (through the optic nerves?). Your book is a wealth of knowledge and could easily compliment the shelves of someone studying computer science at university and needed some history / broad view. All said, worthy for everyone who wants to understand what is going on. I would encourage you to rework it for 2024, like a text book gets updated.

I think i saw another review about their nvme pi case that looks like the pi 4 case but it has a dac add on board. I was thinking about that 1. Also i forgot to mention...I get where you are coming from about the price for the case and pi etc.....that most ppl just think of the price......for me pi's are not just about price...its the versatility and the giant community......that part is priceless. I am so glad that we finally have a pi thats fast enough to actually use a pc.

As we know, the longevity of these items is just not in the cards. Mfg should really allow folks to purchase additional fans (a dozen at a time?). The chances of finding that specific-fit fan is larger than the gap between my eyes (sorry for that visual). I'd buy it if I could be assured I could purchase replacement fans. Just saying.

I've been running a Pi 5 in this case for a month now and am very pleased with it. I'm glad it wasn't just me that found installing the fan cable as fiddly. As you pointed out there's no access to the SD card slot so that means you can't boot from another O/S unless you remove the SSD then you can boot from a USB drive. I hope they update the eeprom to give an option, if possible, so you can boot from the USB over the NVME if one is plugged in giving you the possibility of booting from a different O/S when required.

I managed to get an Argon ONE V3 M.2 NVMe PCIE case, which does all theat the NEO does but adds full size hdmi & audio. Also has excellent build quality. BUT like the NEO the SD Card reader is not accessible so installing an OS to the NVMe is difficult. The easiest is if you already have (as Chris does) an NVMe / USB adaptor / case. The instructions provided weren't very helpful in this area. Also if the RPi5 could be programmed to boot from usb prior to the NVMe, that would be helpful if you want to change the OS on the NVMe.

Yeah I absolutely agree with the perspective that this combo might already cost more than some mini PCs. The entire RPI ecosystem has become almost Apple-like these days - well integrated but way overpriced, the difference being in RPI's case it's less malicious. I saw someone else's comment that says RPI has better modularity, and therefore is easier to repair in case of failure. But honestly, the low cost and low failure rate of these things are such that you are very likely to want an upgrade anyway if something breaks, which kind of voids the repairability argument.

The Pi 5 only has a 2.0 PCIe connection (not 3rd gen). So we're realistically talking about approximately 500 MB/s speeds, after overhead. Don't go for any expensive M2s.

Well, you seem to be mid-informed, as a Pi 5 can usually handle a PCIe 3.0 connection, as this video clearly shows. Very early on Raspberry Pi themselves noted that stating PCIe 2.0 in the specs was conservative. And they provide the opportunity to setup up to 3.0 in the config file, as this video clearly shows. So, as demonstrated, c.800MB/s is perfectly possible. But certainly, there no no point in investing in the highest spec SSDs (although price is often a measure of quality and reliability as well as speed).

A clear top or top with a window would be nice for this case. But it's a nice, sturdy product as it is.

Surely I'm not the only one who was a bit taken aback about 1:57 or so, hearing Chris getting frustrated with the unboxing and saying "Out, you c*nt!" I had my wife listen, and she heard "Out you come", which seems *way* more likely on this channel, but that's not how I heard it. That is an impressive case. Idk, maybe if I get a second pi5 I'll get that, but my black aluminum case with fan seems to do a very good job. All in all, I'm quite happy with the performance of the pi5 (8GB), and have been doing *most* of my desktop work on it, with my old desktop reserved for a few things that use too much memory or just didn't run well for one reason or another. For the price, it's fantastic. The first home computer I used was a TRS-80 Model 3. Or was it III? Three, anyway. I've spent a career mostly using engineering workstations, doing software development primarily with a CAD system, and have seen plenty of computers costing more than 100 times as much but with nowhere near the performance. We used to start a "make" and go take a coffee break. To render a scene, it was better to kick it off just before lunch. And best of all, with channels like this, the SBC revolution *is* televised!

Interesting, there seems to be an unpopulated flash chip, that, for the looks of it, can be connected through SPI to the Pi, giving extra storage.

I like the metal case! Yes, 36.00-40.00 GBP/USD. Maybe a little high, but it's a really great looking case. With the built-in Fan is a bonus, come with every thing needed. But? If plastic case, maybe 8.00-10.00. Who know they maybe a case cheaper? (For me!), But to be able to switches the NVMe-SSD from one Raspberry Pi 5, to another. Another great tools, and love the facts that NVM drive little as 256gb up to 8TB, heard that trying to go over 10+TB?

Looks great upto the point it shuts out the SD slot. Need an adapter cable to break it out or a case that easily afford access. Best so far is modded case got in PI bundle and pimoroni base nvme hat and with that, can just about access the SD card slot, but not ideal/elegant. Verticle mount case be great for NVMe solutions, guess one day end up making me own.

Excellent video, as always, Chris. I'm using the Argon 40 Neo case for my RPi 4, and it has been a very impressive bit of kit. I have been looking at the Neo5 for an upcoming RPi 5 purcahse, and this confirms my thoughts that this would also be an equally good product. The only problem may be actually finding a Neo 5 in stock!

This must be the best case for the Pi5! I wish it came out earlier as I already have my Pi5 in a case with an Nvme m.2 hat that cost about the same. It looks kind of janky though. 😅 This Argon case looks sleek and those are some great temps! With how much a Pi5 is currently, I'll most likely get a more powerful mini-PC than get another Pi5.😔

Having been a fan of Argon for several years, Thank you for testing. If I were to lean towards a Pi5 purchase, this case would be a definite pre-purchase item. But, since I have a really bad taste in my mouth from RPiFoundation, still, I have switched to TFF mini-PCs for heavy lifting, and micro-controllers for the lighter stuff... I miss some of you earlier projects with the Pis, and would be an ardent fan of you converting them to new hardware...
