    CanaKit Raspberry Pi 3 Kit with Clear Case and 2.5A Power Supply

    • Included heat sinks are trash and the thermal tape actually made things worse
    • My only complaint are the heat sinks included
    • Just 4 stars because there's no mention anywhere of the supplied heat sinks.
    • I like that they provide heat sinks.
    • The clear case is pretty cool, and heat sinks are easy to apply.
    • I had the Pi 3 inserted into the case with heat sinks installed and booted up with RasPBX in a matter of 5 minutes from opening the packaging.
    • The case fits the pi perfectly and the heat sinks are a nice addition
    • I do wish this kit came with a third heat sink to cover all the areas that get hot
    • The heat sinks are basic but work fine for normal computing.
    • Even the little heat sinks went on well and are working fine (they
    • I used a slightly larger heat sink and used thermal paste
    • That way, you can make sure that the location of the heat sinks will not interfere with getting the inner cover in place.[EDIT
    • The kit had everything that was needed to get up and running, and the heat sinks will be nice since this will be on 24/7/365.
    • This kit came with everything I needed, power supply, heat sinks, case,
    • I didn't use the heat sinks and at first I had a heat problem
    • The heat sinks are good
    • The included heat sinks are a great addition to the board and the clear case hold the Pi nicely.
    • (and yes the heat sink is installed)
    • The heat sinks are a bit small for more 3D gaming systems like N64.There are tons of Youtube videos and forums for setting up a Raspberry Pi retro gaming system and for modifying your Raspberry Pi with a cooling system
    • I'm glad the heat sinks were included because the chips started feeling pretty warm without them
    • It's nice that they are included, but the heat sinks could be better quality
    • the heat-sink tape wasn't well placed, and given the tape's
    • When I ordered this RPi3 kit one of the heat sinks included was missing and the other was damaged
    • Dinged one star because the smaller heat sink was damaged in the package but still usable.
    • Heat sinks were a nice addition in this kit, not all Pi kits on the market include them.

    • The heat sinks are good
    • The heat sinks seem of good quality and the power supply is producing the 2.5 amps required for the Pi 3 as I did not get the rainbow signal of low power on the screen
    • The case and heat sinks are of mediocre quality
    • I can say about this kit outside of all parts are pretty solid, never had an issue with the board, case, heat sinks, or power supply
    • My only minor complaint was that while the heat sinks were included, there were no directions on what to do with them
    • The kit had everything that was needed to get up and running, and the heat sinks will be nice since this will be on 24/7/365.
    • Heat sinks are kind of pointless though
    • It took me about five minutes to open everything up, get the heat sinks put on, and to get the Pi into the case
    • it seems sturdy enough and now I have an alternativeShipped fast came with two heat sinks that stick on easily that was nice also includes the power supply in a few minutes I was mounted up and running :)
    • Installing the heat sinks and getting the board into the case was straightforward, and I had this up and running Raspbian in 30 minutes
    • The case is well built and sturdy and the heat sinks have pre-applied adhesive and are easy to install
    • The heat sinks are basic but work fine for normal computing.
    • I wish it came with instructions for installing the heat sink, but otherwise excellent.
    • The case is a nice touch and there is also heat sinks included.
    • Great to have a kit that includes heat sinks, a sturdy - and easy to assemble and disassemble - case, and a properly rated power supply all in one go.
    • The clear case is pretty cool, and heat sinks are easy to apply.
    • The heat sinks are tiny, and I mean tiny
    • I like that they provide heat sinks.
    • The heat sinks added in kit do more harm than good
    • Taking the lid off helped but the case and especially the heat sinks are hot to the touch
    • the plastic part that hold the computer down to the bottom of the case with the hole in it so the heat sinks can stick out
    • What you're paying for roughly breaks down to: $35 for the RPi, $5-7 for the power supply, and $10-8 for the case and heat sinks
    • Heat sinks are a plus and attach easily as they have the pre-stick pads on them
    • The case is nothing special, and the inclusion of easy to apply heat sinks is just gravy.
    • Nice complete kit, the heat sinks are a nice benefit.
    • The case is easy to assemble and the heat sinks are useful.
    • The heat sinks were easy to apply, but they seem a bit superfluous unless you're actively overclocking the Pi 3.

    • The case is easy to assemble and the heat sinks are useful.
    • Also, I must have missed the section in the video where the heat sinks are attached
    • Nice complete kit, the heat sinks are a nice benefit.
    • I'm using the case and heat sink provided by Cana Kit.
    • Just what I needed (the power supply, heat sinks, case and RPi).
    • I didnt realize they came with heat sinks also
    • The kit also comes with two heat sinks to help with thermal regulation and the power adapter fits perfectly and provides adequate power
    • It consists of a Pi3, heat sinks, power supply and case
    • The version of the kit that I chose for myself is pretty basic: device, simple case, heat sinks, power supply, and paperwork
    • RB PI processors heats up thanks to those little heat sinks that helps it cool down
    • I put them on first and lucked out as they were in good position, so they
    • I'd definitely recommend this kit as it has everything you need to get started and is very reasonably priced.
    • Pi works as it should, Heatskins are perfect fit, Power supply works great and the clear case is attractive and has good visibility of the LEDs.
