Good slicer settings for a Raspberry Pi computer case?
I've designed a Raspberry Pi cluster case in Fusion 360 that uses 3mm thick walls (2mm in a limited number of places). The case is a cube so very few rounded surfaces (just a few 1mm fillets to round off some edges). What's a good PrusaSlicer setting for such a print? I'm guessing that since there isn't any fine detail perhaps things like layer height could be higher.

It doesn't sound like you need to go high resolution. 0.2 quality may be good. I'd look at a few choices in the slicer and note the increased print speed, depends on how hidden you want the layer lines and whether you want to do any post processing.
There is also the option of variable layer heights, I printed an item yesterday and used 0.3 draft for the bottom layers and up the sides but increased to 0.05 towards the top where there was detail, this more than halved the print time in comparison to using the higher res for the whole model.

Even 0.3 mm may work just fine. And as @lize suggested, there's variable layer height, but sometimes it can work against you if it goes to smaller layer heights in areas it thinks deserve it but are not really that important and the standard 0.3mm would be just fine.
