ARGON ONE V3 NVMe PCIE Raspberry Pi 5 Case

• Argon ONE V3 M.2 NVME Case is now made compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 with upgraded features and a new Black Finish.
• Better Active Cooling with the blower-type PWM programmable 30mm fan. We have repositioned this within the case to be more efficient and quiet.
• It has improved Passive Cooling by adding a heatsink on the power management chip of the Raspberry Pi 5 aside from its CPU, which both get hot during heavy use.
• Better communication and power management with the Raspberry Pi 5 thru Raspberry Pi's RP2040 chip, which controls the features and functions of the Argon ONE V3, like fan speed, power management state (e.g. boot manually or automatically after a power outage by simply setting the jumper pins inside the case) allowing you to use the Argon ONE however you see fit.
• The power button located at the back can perform the following with the installation of an open-sourced script that allows for safe shutdown, reboot, and forced shutdown
• Cable management remains exquisite with two full-sized HDMI ports neatly placed at the back allowing the Raspberry Pi 5 to use two monitors simultaneously
• Sleek magnetic cover to the access port of the custom colour-coded GPIO Pins.
• Built-in IR receiver allows the Argon ONE V3 to be easily usable with the Argon IR remote meaning the case now makes for an even better media player!
• Enjoy using your audio accessories with the OPTIONAL 3.5mm audio jack via the internal DAC audio board upgrade (Coming SOON!)

NOTES:

** Please take extra care when connecting the PCIE/NVME Ribbon Cable/Connectors **

** Check your NVME drive is compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 **

** SDcard access is restricted/hidden (but still useable) by the ribbon cable **

Drews Troubleshooting Tips:

If seeing Messages regarding low power: Be sure you are using Official Pi5 27w Charger & have run the scripts required on Page 13 of the manual. Check for the "usb_max_current_enable=1" has been added to config.txt

Case won't power on: Check the daughterboard connections & move the power jumper from “default” to “always-on and try again. (Once setup you can move it back)

Screws for NVMe slot can sometimes be tight but with a good screwdriver, they will undo.
