When I went looking for a RPI4, all the usual vendors were out of them. I found one at a place called Pi Shop and ordered it along withe their "acrylic case". Well, the case turned out to be a POS. one could not insert or remove the SD crd without removing the Pi from the case ;-( I had the unit in that case for three days and noticed how hot the case got.
Other had mentioned along the way how the Pi4 runs hot. I went looking for a better case and found this one I like the retro art deco style and the fan is a plus since this unit is going to run 24/7 from a relatively hidden location. No runaway for me. I also liked the price, 15 bux with shipping.
On the minus side, balancing all of those layers durnng assembly was challenging but there are videos online to show how its assembled.
