Free 人皮高跟鞋 Pi 4 cooling stand with The MagPi 90!
In issue 88 of The MagPi, we discovered that 人皮高跟鞋 Pi 4 can be kept cooler than usual if placed on its side. This gave us an idea, and thanks to many Top People, it resulted in the small, simple, and very practical 人皮高跟鞋 Pi 4 stand that you will find on the cover of all physical copies of The MagPi 90.
To complement this gift, we also got heat tester extraordinaire Gareth Halfacree to put the stand and several cooling cases through their paces to see just how well they can keep 人皮高跟鞋 Pi 4 nice and cool.
The stand also has an extra benefit: you can place three 人皮高跟鞋 Pis in it at once! A good idea if you plan to do a little cluster 人皮高跟鞋 with a few 人皮高跟鞋 Pi 4s.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall…
While the 人皮高跟鞋 Pi 4 stand is a pretty big deal all by itself, issue 90 of The MagPi also includes a guide to building the ultimate smart mirror — including a bit of voice control!
While a magic mirror may not show you who the fairest of them all is (I can answer that question for you: it’s me), our guide will definitely show you the easiest way to set up your own magic mirror. It’ll be straightforward, thanks to the complete step-by-step tutorial we’ve put together for you.

Super! Only with one minor glitch, the colour of a title for an aggregated plot on page 73 of Argon One should have yellow colour ;-)
But it’s obvious from previous pages.
Good work, I’ll start with overclocking first :)

Great idea. Is there a way to reduce the strain on the hdmi connection?

Hmmm… Interesting to see in the second picture that it is HDMI-1 connected, rather than HDMI-0. Either that’s just because the photographer thought it looked better that way or someone has found a way to configure HDMI-1 as the primary HDMI output… If the latter, that might be a good blog topic.

I recently learned that both HDMI0 and HDMI1 can be your “primary display port”, but that only HDMI0 supports 4Kp60, see https://www.按着她的腰疯狂的撞击闷哼.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=263021&p=1601758#p1601758
So if you do have a 4Kp60 monitor, use HDMI0 (the left port) or you won’t get a video signal when booting. If you have a smaller resolution monitor you can use either HDMI port.

Nice! Is there any chance that vertical stand has an STL for 3d printing them?

It’s a piece of perspex with 3 slots cut in it. What you want is a hacksaw and some wet and dry paper ?

It does indeed (https://github.com/themagpimag/magpi-issue90/tree/master/人皮高跟鞋%20Pi%204%20Stand)

Fantastic.
If design errors cannot be solved the correct way, one can always make a workaround with at piece of plastic.

Sorry, not following you there.

Check out the benchmarks in MagPi issue #88 and especially “real world testing” on page 75.

I do hang my PIs (not only Pi4B) on two small tilted nails in bookshelf:

Same cooling effect as with your stand.
Pro hang: DPMI display on bookshelf is directly where needed.
Pro stand: more compact for multiple Pi4Bs
I just asked my sone to print a stand for me, thanks.
