Quiet PC Serenity Pro Gamer Z2

A top quality fully-built quiet gaming PC, using an 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen CPU and a B550 motherboard. This formidable machine doesn’t compromise on performance and comes with a two-year fully inclusive warranty.

The Serenity Pro Gamer Z2 is a great choice for customers looking for elegance and quietness while still being able to provide enough FPS for the most demanding of games. The PC is built around one of the be quiet’s chassis or the Antec P101, which all offer excellent cooling at very low noise levels. Whether you opt for the larger Dark Base 900 or the smaller Silent Base 600 be assured you are purchasing a high quality gaming system that uses only the very best quiet components.

The best quiet / performance balance

Any air-cooled PC will always be a compromise between quietness (arising from careful cooling design) and performance (which produces heat). This situation affects gamers even more than most because of course, the latest and greatest processors and 3D graphics cards tend to be the ones which run the hottest and which have the loudest fans on them.

We’ve done a lot of development work in this area to bring you the Serenity Pro Gamer Z2 - a fully built high performance PC which we think offers the best of both worlds - virtually silent running (especially when the PC isn’t being used for gaming), and extraordinary gaming performance with great cooling design which gives total safety and reliability for your precious CPU and GPU.

High Quality Components

As with all of our systems, we use only the best available components, giving you confidence that your next PC will be reliable and perform as you’d expect for many years to come. The motherboard in this particular systems is key to the features the PC has. The ASUS TUF B550M motherboard features an array of USB 3.2 ports (inc USB Type-C), 2.5Gb ethernet port, a S/PDIF and onboard HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 for 4K resolution at 60Hz (assuming you are using APU graphics).

The other motherboard option is the ASUS ProArt X570 Creator. Previous X570 motherboards always used a small fan to keep them cool, which made them unsuitable for a fanless system. This revised version utilises passive heatsinks for the VRM and chipset, making perfect for our range of passive systems. The X570 is jammed with features that surpass the B550 in almost every way. There are more M.2 ports (3 in total), two LAN ports with one of them being 10Gb, integrated Thunderbolt 4, built-in Wi-Fi and eight USB 3.2 ports.

Storage considerations

When specifying your new PC’s storage options using our system configurator below, you will be offered a choice of drives which vary by price and capacity. There are two primary types of storage. A conventional hard disk drive (HDD) offers huge storage capacity for a low price, but it won’t be especially fast and it will generate a certain amount of running noise since it contains a constantly-rotating spindle. A solid state (SSD) or a M2 drive on the other hand, offer tremendous speed and absolutely silent operation, but they cost more than an HDD for any given capacity.

So if you need a lot of storage space (for videos or large quantities of digital photos for example), then we would recommend an HDD. On the other hand, if you prefer silence and speed (especially boot-up speed), then an SSD or M2 drive would be a better choice. Of course you can have more than one drive, so you could have the best of both worlds by choosing one of each! We recommend that customers chose an SSD or M2 drive as a boot drive that contains the operating system and important programs and a conventional HDD to store other data, but remember that if you intend to have a totally silent PC you might want to forgo the HDDs all together as they will make some noise due to their moving parts.

Clean Build™ Promise

The price of many pre-built PCs these days is often supported by cash kickbacks from software companies who pay hardware manufacturers to pre-install limited or trial versions of their software and then hope that the customer pays to upgrade to the full version. The downside to this approach is that the new PC comes pre-loaded with a lot of “junkware” which bloats the operating system and can cause severe performance degradation.

Here at Quiet PC we believe that customers have every right to expect the best possible performance from a brand new PC, so every system we build comes with our Clean Build™ promise. We install the operating system (if you order one), motherboard drivers, OS updates and Windows Security - that’s it. You won’t be pestered by pop-ups and nag screens and you can get on with using your new PC immediately without having to uninstall lots of junkware first. Your new machine will boot in super-quick time and will stay running quickly for many months and years to come.

Free hardware support and fully inclusive warranty

We offer free hardware technical support for as long as you own the machine. This support covers any hardware query or problem, including advice on maintenance and upgrades. We regret we can’t offer software support or training so we would recommend contacting the software vendor in this instance.

Our hardware warranty runs for at least two years and is “collect and return” meaning that you don’t need to worry about getting the machine back to us - we will instruct our courier to collect it from you on a day of your choosing, then after we have checked and repaired it we will send it back to you by express courier at our expense. In addition, unlike many other PC suppliers, we have an “open-case” policy which means you are free to open the machine and perform your own minor modifications or upgrades without worrying that your warranty might be affected.
