I'm about to start intermittent fasting this week. Should I take BCAA before going to gym while fasting?

If that's when you want to end your fast, sure.

As far as I'm concerned, only when protein would disturb the fast, as it contains carbs. I don't think BCAA would disturb as well.
Intermittent fasting is a meme. It is no better than normal eating pattern.

BCAAs have calories but aren't going to officially break your fast. For that matter, according to Martin Berkhan, you could substitute a scoop of whey for the BCAAs and still be in a fasted state as far as your body is concerned.
