"Of the metal enclosures, the FLIRC cases performed the best. Probably helped by having a plastic base."

I scanned the reviews on Amazon and no one reported any perceivable impacts for what its worth. The only negative review, the case does not allow enough space for the GPIO connector.

Thanks guys, I just didn't know there was so many reviews out there.

And about GPIO, my hardware days are (sadly) over, so I won't be at any gpio pins. I always hated that interface anyhow, probably because the early implementations of it were so dreadful, and the programming so awkward.
