Hello all, I am having Alta board for around a month or so, and I am still do some experiment with it. I use it as a desktop PC. Currently, I use Fedora 40 Workstation (gnome). When I do regular use, e.g. watching a movieYoutube video, opening a number of tabs in chromium and around 10-14 another …

Hi, My experience with the case LoveRPi Active Cooling Media Center Case with USB Type-C is: The board fits perfectly and it is easely to be detached from the case. If you use the bottom of the case it is quite handy for a workbench or table. The SD is difficult to handle for removal or insertion…

You can turn off the fan if cooling is not needed. Keep the PWM pin high.

I bought “LoveRPi Active Cooling Media Center PC Case with Fan for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, Libre Computer Board, ASUS Tinker Board (Black) case” for “Alta AML-A311D-CC board”, the USB-c couldn’t be connected, so I had to make it larger a bit.

My apologies, I was simply trying to suggest options that might prove helpful to another user.

Finding a suitable case for Alta board isn’t a priority for me, what I really want is a good solution for the heat, I am looking for passive cooler, which should be much better that the heat-sink which comes with the board. Thank you so much @AltaTHD For all your suggestions.
