The Pironman 5 is a premium chassis designed to house the Raspberry Pi, which, in addition to great visual appeal, adds some key features to improve the storage, cooling and connectivity of these boards.

Raspberry Pi are distributed “naked”, without chassis or covers. For the operation of this development, which leads single-board computers, are really not essential, yes they are useful as protection, for aesthetics, or in cases such as those in question, to improve some of its properties.

Pironman 5, a premium chassis for the Raspberry Pi

The Raspberry Foundation offers an official chassis, but encourages third parties to sell their own. And there is a lot to choose from, all kinds and for only 7 euros. They are usually combined with fans/sinks, power supplies or other accessories.

Pironman 5 is the next level as you will see in the pictures. It is a chassis that uses materials from aluminium in the general and upper construction, while transparent acrylic panels are used on the front and one side to allow you to see its interior. It looks like a mini gaming PC with a PWM fan and two additional fans with RGB lighting effects.

The case adds adapters which allow you to have:

• Add NVMe PCIe M.2 2230/2242/2260/2280 SSD.
• Access the GPIO pins via an extension on one side of the chassis.
• Use the remote control thanks to the infrared receiver on the front of the case.
• View CPU, memory, temperature and other details on the small 0.96 inch OLED screen on the front.
• Insert or remove microSD cards through the port on the front of the computer.
• Get access to two full-size HDMI ports on the back with micro HDMI to HDMI adapters.

In addition to other functions and adding a spectacular visual style for its small size, the chassis also allows you to protect the dust plate or connectors from accidental punching. Pironman 5 has a price 79 dollars, a high price considering it costs the same as an 8GB Raspberry 5 board. But here you have it on their web portal for those looking for the best in this type of chassis
