I have a 8gig raspberry pi that I ultimately want to run with a fan and also include a RTC chip.

I purchased a Mluzei case that includes a fan. Miuzei Raspberry Pi Case

Due to the fact that using StellarMate with my travel router results in a time mismatch I purchased a RTC chip that I made sure would not borrow connector plug in slots. I picked up a set of DS3231 RTC chips. DS3231 RTC

What I didn’t count on was that there was a clearance issue between the RTC and the fan inside the case.

I haven’t completely given up on this combination working but the way the modular Miuzei case is put together requires the last layer to hold in the raspberry pi board, which would make adding a makeshift spacer layer a little iffy.

By any chance would there be a recommended pi case that might alleviate the spacing issue? Would there be any other better solution?
