Streacom BC1 V2 is a nicely designed product that aims for a specific target group, aka enthusiasts/power users/reviewers/overclockers, who wish a stable bench to work with and have easy and fast access to the main system/motherboard. The product is very solid and the manufacturing quality is superb. Our own product didn't have any flaws during transportation and unpacking, everything was included and the addition of the laser engraving was something we liked about this product. The installation/assembly does require a learning curve, but Streacom has an online guide that should be looked at before starting to assemble the system. You might require a Philips screwdriver for securing the screws of the feet, which are re-designed and now include bigger rubber feet vs the 1.1 version of the product, and in our testing, we found the product to be 100% secure and not flexing at all.

Remember this product weighs 1.75kg its made out of a single block of 8mm thick aluminum sheet. The included screws/standoffs/PCI support brackets/etc are plenty and if you need more, Streacom sells them as well individually at relatively good prices so keep that in mind before ordering from the Streacom website directly. The BC1 V2 offers installation of water cooling up to 360mm for both CPU/GPU via four brackets, so this is also a possibility and furthermore, it supports two 2.5"/3.5" HDDs as well. Power supplies up to 217mm are not a problem and you could place the installed system, even vertically, however, this isn't suggested with big GPUs like the Nvidia 4090, since will get much load to the installed feet.

Do we feel this is a perfect product? Well yes and no. First of all an open case will attract dust..everything will be visible, so for our needs, we did get the silver color, hopefully, much will be visible after a while. Another thing is that we feel included screws for 2.5"/3.5" should have a thick rubber membrane since securing metal to aluminum will leave a mark at the final coating, already we witnessed it. Perhaps in the black color, this will not be visible. And the final issue for many would be the final retail price. The product costs around 175 Euro + Shipping + possible local VAT taxes (the product ships from China). This product isn't for everyone, however, premium products always have been for the few. We really like this product and we hope that Streacome in the future will add more features, maybe additional handles on both sides for easier fully installed system transportation.
