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 - 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.
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.
Therefore 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.
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 Microsoft Security Essentials / Windows Defender - 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 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.

Customer Reviews
Super power, super Quiet
Fallout 4 triggered my purchase of this machine, learning that PS4 frame rates were poor and not always hitting 30FPS I wanted to play the game in a better fashion.
Shopping Experience
I ordered the machine, paid for it online and waited for it to be built which took only 3 days, then it was ready to collect.
I travelled a round trip of 360 miles in heavy rain to collect the machine, and I was very glad I did. The Quiet Pc office is located in a beautiful part of England so its worth collecting your machine, just to know its safe in your hands. The staff there are very friendly and even powered the machine on to demonstrate how quiet it was.
Amazing PC
I was not disappointed, its a stunning machine, very quiet indeed. The case is excellent, this is a luxury case that has lots of nice features. The cable management plate inside for example, is very nice.
Build quality by QuietPC is also superb, the entire machine was put together, OS installed and ready to go. I only had to activate Windows and login to my live account and I was on the desktop ready to start installing Steam, the latest NVidia driver and some games. All the boxes to the components are also included as are all the cables and instructions etc. for all the parts you purchase. Something I was hoping for and I wasn’t disappointed.
Gaming
These are the steps to start a game which demonstrate how quick it is:
- press the mouse button on the wireless keyboard to wake the machine
- press a key to bring up the login screen then type in your pin number (seems Windows 64 Pro allows you to just have a numeric pin which doesn’t even require pressing enter after you type it)
- from the desktop open Steam, select your game and click Play
Regarding Fallout 4, I have not been disappointed. Load times are excellent, going in and out of building or fast travelling is about 4-5 seconds at most.
I was expecting noise levels to change when playing but it stays the same. It’s not silent as that is impossible when fans are employed, however its very acceptable and is not noticeable during gameplay. Having played through games like ‘Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture’ on ps4, I know how noisy a machine can get so I was expecting the same. Its certainly nothing like that and is better performance overall.
The only downside to the machine is the LEDs on the fans at the rear of the case are too bright for me (in a dark room).
