So this'll handle how much power consumption? 50W? 100W? 200W? If they ever release it, I'd definitely take a look. Good radiator cases aren't that common, especially if the component selection is not restricted. apart from power consumption.
Wild-ish guess based on the size compared with their other chassis - 45W. They tend to rate pretty conservatively. For the use case that's ideal - something like a Ryzen 5 2400 GE would pack a fair punch for a silent system, whether as a workhorse PC or media system.
No. Streacom doesn't rate conservatively and I don't think any of their cases are rated as low as 45w, not even ones which are smaller & clearly lower capacity than this one.
I want to see how this would stack up against the other SFF cases that have been produced by small groups. Looks like it might be more flexible than something like an M1, but a bit bigger, perhaps easier, to build in.

The Fanless version of the DA2 is known as the DB2:http://www.streacom.com/wp-content/uploads/db2-pro...
Just like the Fanless DB4 has a version with fans called the DA4.

Streacom will probably claim 180w. (90w per side).In reality I would expect it to handle 120w (60w per side)
I have an fc8 (smaller & cooling fins on 1 side) and it's rated for 90w but I can only sustain 70w from the wall before my system throttles.
My power brick is external so if we guess it's 80% efficient, the entire FC8 case is dissipating about 55w.
So you'll basically have enough capacity for a mid-range CPU & a mid-range GPU
