Because of its much reduced dimensions compared to the BC1, it weighs only 805 grams. This open workbench was developed in collaboration with HWBOT and OverClocking-TV, and although resident overclocking or testing on ITX platforms is not mainstream or common, the BC1 Mini fulfills this need by giving overclockers an extremely compact and rugged open test bench to work with. small test bench for overclocking enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<h4>Streacom BC1 Mini Bare Test Stand Specifications:<\/h4>\n<p><b><\/b>Size: 230(L) x 190(W) x 78~221(H) mm<br \/>\nColor: Black, Silver, Red<br \/>\nMaterial: 5052 aluminum magnesium alloy, SAE 304 stainless steel<br \/>\nMotherboard: Mini-ITX, Mini-DTX<br \/>\nCPU air-cooling: unlimited height<br \/>\nGraphics card: Unlimited length<br \/>\nPower Supply: SFX, SFX-L<br \/>\nFan mounting position (above + below): 280 mm, 240 mm, 140 mm, 120 mm, 92 mm, 80 mm<br \/>\nWater-cooling drain supportability (above + below): 280 mm, 240 mm, 140 mm, 120 mm<br \/>\nChassis I\/O Port: None<br \/>\nHard drives and bays: up to two 2.5\" (will limit the length of power supply support)<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_56_1 ez-toc-wrap-center counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\" role=\"button\"><label for=\"item-6a75dee4858a0\" ><span class=\"\"><span style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #dd962c;color:#dd962c\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #dd962c;color:#dd962c\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input aria-label=\"Toggle\" type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"item-6a75dee4858a0\"><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/streacom-bc1-mini\/#%e8%bf%b7%e4%bd%a0%e6%95%9e%e7%af%b7%e8%b6%85%e8%b7%91-streacom-bc1-minibc1-mini-v1-%e8%a3%b8%e6%b8%ac%e6%9e%b6%e9%96%8b%e7%ae%b1\" title=\"Mini Convertible Supercar Streacom BC1 Mini (BC1 Mini V1) Bare Test Stand Unboxing\">Mini Convertible Supercar Streacom BC1 Mini (BC1 Mini V1) Bare Test Stand Unboxing<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/streacom-bc1-mini\/#bc1-mini-v1-itx-%e8%a3%b8%e6%b8%ac%e6%9e%b6%e5%ae%89%e8%a3%9d%e6%ad%a5%e9%a9%9f\" title=\"BC1 Mini V1 ITX Bare Test Rack Installation Procedure\">BC1 Mini V1 ITX Bare Test Rack Installation Procedure<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%e8%bf%b7%e4%bd%a0%e6%95%9e%e7%af%b7%e8%b6%85%e8%b7%91-streacom-bc1-minibc1-mini-v1-%e8%a3%b8%e6%b8%ac%e6%9e%b6%e9%96%8b%e7%ae%b1\"><\/span>Mini Convertible Supercar Streacom BC1 Mini (BC1 Mini V1) Bare Test Stand Unboxing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Whether in Taiwan or abroad, overclocking or testing on ITX motherboard platforms is not mainstream or common, and I seem to be the only one in Taiwan who regularly uses ITX motherboards for overclocking and unboxing tests, so as a minority gamer, I still hope that the bare test frame can be a little bit smaller, or even have a bare test frame dedicated to ITX is the best! In the past, I have been using my own two Streacom BC1 V2s for testing, sometimes it's not a good idea to use a big rack with a small board.<\/p>\n<p>About three or four years ago I realized that Streacom from Holland had released the BC1 Mini (now called BC1 Mini V1) bare test stand for ITX and SFF PCs, and now there's a BC1 Mini V2, but there are very few Streacom stores in Taiwan that sell Streacom products, and the only ones that I can remember are the agent Lowe's, and the store HARD PIECE VERITAS. And basically a few batches sold out, not to mention the ITX bare test frame with very few users, so I just quietly squatting on the second-hand market to see slowly, and this moment just squatting to a seller to 3,000 yuan to find the price of second-hand sold, 3,000 yuan to find to buy eight years ago chassis I am sure is just what I need ah (do not say more words, I said is just what I need is just what I need).<\/p>\n<p>The BC1 Mini comes a year after Streacom launched the BC1 Open Benchtable (which supports up to ATX motherboards and power supplies) barebones test frame. Both models share the same design principles, but the BC1 Mini (BC1 Mini V1) is only compatible with Mini-ITX and Mini-DTX small form factor motherboards, and was developed to meet the needs of more compact systems. The BC1 Mini (BC1 Mini V1) is only compatible with Mini-ITX and Mini-DTX small form factor motherboards, and was developed specifically to meet the needs of more compact systems, with simplicity and practicality as the key goals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full

Bare Test Rack only supports Mini-ITX and Mini-DTX motherboards, and the power supply supports SFX and SFX-L power supplies. The rack itself doesn't have any I\/O ports (we recommend that you buy a boot key or other I\/O ports, it's just a few dozen bucks), and the top and bottom of the rack can be used with adjustable brackets for mounting 280 mm, 240 mm, 140 mm, 120 mm, 92 mm, 80 mm fans or watercooling. The top and bottom of the bare test stand can be used with adjustable brackets to mount 280 mm, 240 mm, 140 mm, 120 mm, 92 mm, 80 mm fans or water coolers, but I found it difficult to use either the V1 or V2 versions, and I tested the water coolers too often, so it would be better to just leave them out.<\/p>\n<p>The power supply section is an actual SFX-sized, 100 x 125 x 65.5 mm unit. <a href=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/lian-li-a3-matx\/#lian-li-sp850-%e9%9b%bb%e6%ba%90%e4%be%9b%e6%87%89%e5%99%a8%e9%96%8b%e7%ae%b1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LIAN LI SP850<\/a> For the demonstration, I personally recommend using the SFX power supply because with the cable space it's already a little tight, and if you install a 2.5\" HDD or use the SFX-L, it's going to be a little crowded.<\/p>\n<p>The Streacom BC1 Mini V1 ITX Open Benchtable was first released on OpenBenchtable.com, the first wave of Open Benchtable: Community Edition version was priced at $164 USD, while the silver version was previously sold for NT$5,100 USD in Taiwan on the Hardcore Tourmaline. The price of the silver version was NT$5,100, so there are very few people who would buy a bare Open Benchtable, and even fewer who would buy the ITX-specification BC1 Mini V1 for this purpose, but with the high price of the new product, I would personally recommend looking for a second-hand one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6314\" src=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-14-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2206 Personally, I prefer to have the power supply fan facing the top of the bare test stand, so that there's at least a gap between the back of the motherboard and the air intake, but if the fan intake side is facing downwards, it's basically not getting any air.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6317\" src=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-15-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2206 with ITX motherboard on display.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6318\" src=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Streacom-BC1-Mini-16-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2206 Motherboard unboxing demonstration, I'm still accustomed to one-piece water cooling directly outside.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Q4 2017, Streacom from the Netherlands announced the BC1 Mini (now called BC1 Mini V1) barebones test stand for ITX and SFF PCs, made of 8 mm thick precision-machined, anodized aluminum, which is remarkably rigid but also very light. Because of its much reduced dimensions compared to the BC1, it weighs only 805 grams. This open workbench was developed in collaboration with HWBOT and OverClocking-TV, and although resident overclocking or testing on ITX platforms is not mainstream or common, the BC1 Mini fulfills this need by giving overclockers an extremely compact and rugged open test bench to work with. The Streacom BC1 Mini is a compact and ruggedized open test bench for overclockers. Streacom BC1 Mini Bare Test Stand Specifications: Dimensions: 230 (L) x 190 (W) x 78~221 (H) mm Color: Black, Silver, Red Material: 5052 Aluminum-Magnesium Alloy, SAE 304 Stainless Steel Motherboard: Mini-ITX, Mini-DTX CPU Cooling: Height Unlimited Graphics Card: Length Unlimited Power Supply: SFX, SFX-L Fan Mounting Positions (Above + Below): 280 mm, 240 mm, 140 mm, 120 mm, 92 mm, 80 mm Water Cooling Vent Support (Above + Below): 280 mm, 240 mm, 140 mm, 120 mm Chassis I\/O Ports: None Hard Drives and Storage Slots: up to two 2.5\" (will limit PSU support length) Mini Convertible Top Overclocking Streacom BC1 Mini (BC1 Mini V1) Bare Test Rack Unboxing Whether it's in Taiwan or abroad, overclocking or testing on ITX motherboard platforms is not mainstream or common, and I seem to be the only one in Taiwan who regularly uses ITX motherboards for overclocking and unboxing tests. In this case, as a minority gamer, I still hope that the bare test stand can be smaller or even have a bare test stand for ITX! In the past, I used to use the two Streacom BC1 V2's that I have in my hand to match with each other, and sometimes the small boards with the big racks are really incompatible with each other. About three or four years ago, I realized that Streacom from Holland had released the BC1 Mini (now called BC1 Mini V1) for ITX and SFF PCs, and now there's a BC1 Mini V2, but there are very few Streacom stores in Taiwan that sell Streacom products, and the only ones that I can remember are the agent Lowe's, and the store HARD PIECE VERY FINE. And basically, there are a few batches sold out, not to mention the ITX bare test racks which have very few users, so I just quietly squat at the second-hand market and look around, and I just happened to squat at a seller who sold it second-hand at a price of 3,000 dollars, which is definitely what I need to buy an eight-year-old chassis (don't say anything else, if I say it's what I need to buy it's what I need to buy it). BC1 Mini is Streacom launched a year after the launch of the BC1 Open Benchtable (maximum support for ATX motherboards and power supplies) bare test frame, the two models have the same design principles, but the BC1 Mini (BC1 Mini V1) is only compatible with Mini-ITX, Mini-DTX small motherboards, designed to meet the demand for more compact systems developed for the design of the main focus on the demand for more compact systems, the main purpose of the design is to meet the demand for more compact systems. It was developed specifically to meet the needs of more compact systems, and is designed for simplicity, practicality, and, most importantly, portability. \u2206 Streacom BC1 Mini V1 ITX Open Benchtable. \u2206 I have two other BC1 V2 ATX Open Benchtable Bare Test Racks. \u2206 BC1 Mini V1 ITX Open Benchtable dimensions.   Streacom's Open Benchtable uses a modular design, the overall logic of use is not directly applicable to conventional chassis, it is highly recommended to read the manual before disassembling, in any case, I have to read the manual before even disassembling it. \u2206 Basic specifications and layout. \u2206Threaded specifications and disassembly steps, the third step is to install the power supply. \u2206 Step 3: Installation of 2.5\" hard disk, motherboard, graphics card, water cooling and fan.   The BC1 Mini V1 body, feet and bracket are made of 8 mm thick aluminum (5052 Al-Mg alloy), milled by CNC milling machine with precision milling process, and the surface is sandblasted, anodized and painted. The module screws are made of SAE 304 stainless steel for tool-free use. The \u2206 module screws are made of SAE 304 stainless steel for tool-less use. \u2206 is stored in one piece, making it easy to store and carry. The \u2206 body is made of anodized aluminum and the metallic screws are made of stainless steel.   BC1 Mini V1 ITX Open Benchtable Installation Steps The installation logic of BC1 Mini V1 ITX Open Benchtable is in fact a few key points: the body, feet, motherboard bracket, graphics card bracket, the following are my installation steps for reference. Remove the four screws on the middle section of the base, which are also the screws that will hold the base in place. Remove the two long graphics card brackets and the motherboard bracket from the base, place the base in its mounting position, and lock the four screws on the body and the base. Lock the four motherboard brackets with the quick release clips. Lock the base of the graphics card bracket. Lock the two long graphics card brackets. The four 6#32 Thumbscrews in the lower right corner of the front of the unit are used to hold the power supply in place, usually I don't bother...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6293,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[556,561,555,584,569,557,579,567,562,565,582,563,558,356,355,564,583,560,363,362,578,568,575,581,585,577,574,572,559,566,89,571,573,586,31,570,580,576],"class_list":{"0":"post-6292","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"hentry","7":"category-case","8":"tag-bc1-mini","9":"tag-bc1-mini-v1","10":"tag-bc1-mini-v1-itx-open-benchtable","11":"tag-cnc-","12":"tag-diy-","13":"tag-itx-open-benchtable","14":"tag-itx-","18":"tag-mini-dtx-","19":"tag-mini-itx-","20":"tag-open-benchtable","21":"tag-review","22":"tag-reviews","23":"tag-sff-","24":"tag-sfx-","25":"tag-streacom","26":"tag-test","27":"tag-unboxing","28":"tag-578","29":"tag-568","30":"tag-575","31":"tag-581","32":"tag-585","33":"tag-577","34":"tag-574","35":"tag-572","36":"tag-559","37":"tag-566","38":"tag-89","39":"tag-571","40":"tag-573","41":"tag-586","42":"tag-31","43":"tag-570","44":"tag-580","45":"tag-576"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6292"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6292"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6292\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6293"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6292"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6292"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcunboxing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
