Streacom FC2 first review




Our friends from Chiphell.com were able to sample the long rumored Thin mini-ITX case from Streacom. The final product is slightly larger than the prototype we saw last year. It's now a 210 x 210mm aluminium square.

Temperatures (i3-3220T) are good at idle (32°C) average when playing a 1080p file (50°C) and unremarkable after 30 minutes of heavy load (80°C). Still a bit on the smallish side for a 35W CPU, let alone a 45W one.

Update: According to a Streacom rep, this will be an OEM product only.
