Fanless ATX HTPC Chassis

The Streacom FC9B-ALPHA-OPT is a fanless ATX media centre case built from premium 6063 aluminium with 4 mm thick extruded panels. It supports Mini-ITX and Micro-ATX motherboards and uses the chassis itself as a heatsink for silent operation. The black sandblast finish and refined tolerances give it a crafted appearance suited to living-room environments.

Upgrade from Ventilated HTPC Cases

This chassis replaces conventional HTPC enclosures that rely on internal fans for cooling. The jump is worthwhile when absolute silence is the priority and the build can stay within the thermal limits of passive heatpipe cooling. Builders who need active airflow for high-wattage components or standard-height expansion cards should look elsewhere.

Three Low-Profile Slots and Flexible Drive Layout

The case provides three low-profile expansion slots with a maximum card length of 156 mm. Internal storage can be configured up to three 3.5" drives and three 2.5" drives depending on the chosen layout. Two USB 3.0 ports on each side panel use 19/20-pin headers for front-panel connectivity.
