A case that fits electrically but not thermally causes the same failure in the end. Check heat dissipation alongside footprint, especially for sustained CPU loads.
Over 200 enclosures span board-specific aluminum Pi cases, generic ABS project boxes, DIN-rail housings and outdoor waterproof enclosures. Argon NEO, Argon ONE V2 and ARGON ONE V5 double as heatsinks; the V5 adds dual M.2 NVMe PCIe slots for the Raspberry Pi 5.
