I made this adapter for an aluminum cooling case for Raspberry Pi 4 that I ordered from AliExpress.
The original case uses two small 25 mm fans, but I found them too loud for everyday use. To make the setup quieter, I designed this support bracket so the case can use a Noctua NF-A4x10 5V PWM fan instead.
The goal was simple:
reduce fan noise
keep active cooling
use a higher quality fan with PWM control
This adapter is meant for people who already have this style of Raspberry Pi 4 aluminum case and want a quieter cooling solution.

Print in the orientation shown in the photos
PLA should work, but PETG is a better choice if the Pi runs warm for long periods
