Today we are going to take a look at the Streacom FC5 EVO Fanless chassis which is designed for those people who are looking to build a completely silent home theatre PC.  This takes things one step further than most HTPC cases which are designed to be low-noise, as there are no fans at all in this particular case.

You'd be forgiven for not having heard of Streacom as they were only founded in 2010.  They produce a limited range of high-quality small form factor PC cases.  They have a number of models on offer, including both standard and fanless models.  We haven't experienced many fanless cases in the past, so we are excited to see how the FC5 EVO has been designed.
