Tiny Coffee Lake: Streacom f1c Evo

[ChinStrap]

I'm currently researching a 2200/2400G build in a Streacom f1c ws Evo. Thank you posting.

Hey Thauner - If your still checking this thread, would you mind posting some pictures of the build inside the steacom? I'm doing a bit of casual case designing and it'd be interesting to see this one's layout.

Thanks. So I'm guessing motherboard mounts on the bottom. What are those two black brackets for though? I'm guessing the big one might be for a drive?

Yes

It's for fan mounting. Drives can be mounted onto the top cover.

I am impressed with your setup. May I know if I could insert the casing fan Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM onto the top cover of Plexiglass? It's 15mm thick. Does it have sufficient space upon covering?

U would not have space enough for the cpu fan if you did that.

Think scf got me covered there, let me know if you need pictures with hardware installed.

I updated the tread with news about my build for those who are interested

Hi Thauner,

thanks for the great build you are sharing with us. I have currently made up a new rig with Ryzen 5 2400G on an ASUS X470i.
I want to use the same glass but I am wondering what were the radii in the corners of the top that you have used.

I love the glass top.

I made a 3d printed lid for one of these for a friend a couple of years ago. Model is here if its of any use for measurements: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1928417/files

Unfortunately I can not measure the radius in Teamcenter VisMockup, it just shows the length. Can you give me the value?
I think it might be 20 mm right?

Looks like its 18mm radius. Hope that helps.

Great build guys!! I am trying to make an almost identical system.

What kind of fan is that on the top of the case and what kind of cooling solution have you used for the cpu?

It was a 140mm Noctua fan. The board he had used a passive heatsink but was an atom so the fan basically saturated the case with "fresh" air and kept everything cool.

Others have used it with higher powered builds: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/b/mQhypg

So, if I get it well, this was a better choice than l9i with the stock fan or even l9i with stock fan + a slim fan on top ?? Or the choice was made just by the fact that those components were just laying around?

just the components laying around

So, could anyone (or has anyone already) with a similar or bigger height case probably test a similar scenario which is :

• a l9i (or some other cooler) with its fan only
• VS the same with a slim (15mm) fan on top of it
• VS the cooler without a fan and a thick (ideally Noctua NF-A12x25) on top ??
