Fan for Pi5???
-
@rkorell Mine is in a https://argon40.com/products/argon-one-v3-case-for-raspberry-pi-5 case, hidden behind the TV.

@BKeyport OK, thanks!
- Have seen this somewhere sometimes …
I had to have the one with NVME - pretty expensive (for a pi-housing) and pretty big - I‘ve not that much space behind the mirror but will consider this as an alternative.
Keep you posted…
Regards,
Ralf

@BKeyport - there are some reviews out there stating, that raspi 5 power supply isn’t capable to power this config sufficiently and that the temperature is about 70°C and fan is loud …
As you‘re recommending this I assume that his isn‘t the case in your installation (mentioned reviews are for the NVME housings…).
Is this assumption correct?Thanks,

@rkorell i have 2 pi5 w the official fan. one w nvme hat and one without. both are silent after a year

@rkorell that is a beast!!!
-
@sdetweil :-) indeed ….
(Fits millimeter-exactly behind the mirror no more space left…)But seems to work.

@rkorell I haven’t had any issues - it spreads the heat out much more than many of the setups, but it does work in keeping the system running without much noise. This is on a RasPi 5 that runs two mirrors - one with pages flipping all the time, the other showing camera feeds. Very process intensive. I got it initially because the pi was going to be visible - if I was going to use it in the config I have now, I’d likely go with something with a large heat sink and a quiet (Noctura?) fan.

@BKeyport OK, thanks for your viewpoint!
Than I‘m on the right way - still works today :-)
Temperature was 45°C today in the morning - was at 56° everytime before …
So even passive cooling seems to be much better.Nice rest of weekeend to all of you.
