Description

This solid aluminium fanless (totally silent) high performance PC is the most feature packed mini PC on the market. As well as the ultra fast standard PCIe SSD, it has space for 2 extra SSDs and a large capacity 3.5" hard drive.

The Streacom FC8 Alpha case is made from 4mm thick aluminium throughout and with a sandblasted finish it looks superb. Inside advanced heatpipes are used to transfer heat from the CPU to the cooling fins on the side. Once you experience the benefits of silent fanless computing you will never accept a lesser solution!

The latest Kaby Lake Quad Core i7-7700T processor gives performance of a high end large PC, yet it runs so cool that it can be fitted into this fanless mini-PC, consuming very little electrical power.

The standard configuration has 8GB DDR4 memory and 256GB PCIe SSD. You can chose different configurations of up to 32GB DDR4 and 4 disks in total - 2 x 2.5" SSDs up to 2TB and also a 3.5" Hard Drive up to 10TB.

The M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD included is mounted on the underside of the motherboard, and thermally joined to the case with a thermal pad. This enables the SSD to be used intensely without it throttling from overheating.

With a combination of ultra fast SSD and large capacity Hard Drive, this PC can be used as a serious solution for media creation, storage and playback.

Please be aware that currently we cannot confirm Linux support for the Thunderbolt 3 connector.

Configured to your specification

The full length PCI express slot can be used with low profile (half height) expansion cards. Graphics cards are not suitable as they generate too much internal heat, but video capture cards and controller cards can be accommodated. Please contact us if there is a model of PCIe card you would like us to fit for you, and we will provide a custom quote.

Please contact us if you want a custom configuration not available in the options.

If you choose the Windows installation option, as well as installing on the internal SSD drive, so it is ready to use out of the box, we also include a USB memory stick with the Windows installation, so you can rebuild or repair Windows if you need to.

You need to supply your own Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse. Please contact us if you need any recommendations or want custom additions bundled with your order.
