While it would be difficult to assemble without instructions, the instructions are illustrated very well and the pi fit snuggly. The fan is keeping the temperature down. Without the case, the Pi was reaching 42 degrees Celsius, but with it (using just the 3.3V pin), it's hovering around 33C.I like its little rubber feet. They give it good traction so the weight of the cables don't move it around.The GPIO board is technically open for use in the case, but a little hard to access without tweezers. That said, the case is a little hard to take apart because it uses screws. They did include an extra screw and cap, which is good, because I think one cap was stripped when I took it apart while testing the fan on various GPIO pins.Here's what I found: based on the tests and the illustration in the instructions, the fan does seem specifically intended for the constant power pins (3.3V and 5V), because it didn't seem to get enough power through the GPIO pins (like pin 14) to turn on programmatically (I could give a prod to start spinning it when the programmable pin was toggled on, and while the spinning could sustain, it had negligible effects on the temperature).I learned that this is because the other programmable GPIO pins only give "up to" 3.3V depending on other power expenditure.So, I had to use the constant voltage pins to get the temperature reduction. I don't know how long the fan will last while always on, but I'll update if it dies quickly.If you are looking for a good programmable fan, you probably need one that will take 3 pins: ground, power, and input (rather than just ground and power like this one).It makes the pi's LED lights pretty hard to see from anywhere but directly above, so you might want a clear sided one if that's important to you.Overall, a good case for the price. If a programmable fan is important to you, the case might not be for you, but it suits my needs for now: keep it cool, keep the weight of cables from moving it, and make it look neat.

All ports are available for the pi 4b. Not sure about when a Hat is assembled into it. The fan is so quite I can't even hear it running. I have it running for days with no issues. Its nice when something just works like it is supposed to. This is a nice case for the pi 4b.

This is the perfect little case for the Raspberry Pi 4. It comes with clear, easy to follow instructions, a screwdriver for the parts of the assembly that need it, and 4 heat sinks for the various chips to help with cooling.My one gripe is that some of the layers of the case are rather fragile. I ended up breaking one of them, but I was still able to fit it together properly.It’s nice that they allow both the 3.3V and 5V power to the fan, so you can choose between quiet and performance cooling. And the rubber feet are a nice touch.I also like that the GPIO pins are still accessible in addition to all the ports and card reader.Overall, this is a great, good looking case for anyone with a Raspberry Pi 4

Unless you expect it to work with a Raspberry Pi 3It works well on my Raspberry Pi 4

The Pi4 is a very nice bit of hardware but it runs very hot out of the box, even without overclocking ... I had to throttle mine back to get decent temps and decided it really needed a decent enclosure. This stylish case protects the board and features a fan and a few heat sinks. It works great for me, core temps are consistently in the low 90's with the fan on lower voltage. Easy enough to put together and looks really good. Access to all the ports and GPIO pins too if needed. (Note that the fan connector uses either the 5v or 3v pin)
