We are proud to announce this totally fanless PC, the A1050a Fanless with AMD’s latest processors that offer up to a massive 40% performance improvements compared to previous AMD processors. The CPUs incorporates multiple cores and threads, which allow them to excel at multi-core processing events such as gaming, video editing, photo-processing, while simultaneously running other programs. It also boasts overclocking capabilities (but we do not recommend this for a fanless system) and support for up to 128GB DDR4 memory.
The PC can be configured to your exact requirements with plenty of options in terms of processor performance, memory and storage. At present the PC can be configured with a AMD 5000 series G-suffix processor. These new APUs (Advanced Processor Unit) incorporate an updated graphics processor (compared to the 3000 series), as well as adding more cores and threads, which boosts overall performance and multi-tasking. There is also a selection of compatible AMD CPUs that require a graphics card to be installed, see below for more information. This PC can also be configured with up to a whopping 128GB of DDR4 RAM and there is a large range of storage drives available.
Total Silence!
One thing that annoys us as Quiet PC is all the marketing blurb about products being silent. No doubt you have heard some manufacturers claim their products are “silent” or even better “ultra-silent” when their products contain moving parts. There are no variations to the word “silent”, it either is or isn’t, it’s that simple. If a product contains a moving part it will generate some noise and therefore will not be silent. We have therefore configured this PC to allow you to purchase a totally silent computer. The CPU cooler, power supply and graphics cards are totally passive, meaning they will generate absolutely no noise as they have no moving parts. In fact the only way you will be able to make this PC generate noise would be to purchase it with a conventional hard disk drive and/or an optical drive, so please bear that in mind when configuring the system. If total silence is your aim, then opt for an SSD to contain your data rather than a HDD or SSHD, and only put a disk in the optical drive when needed.
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 B550-PLUS motherboard features an array of USB 3.2 ports and onboard HDMI 2.1 for 4K resolution at 60Hz (assuming you are using APU graphics).
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
These days, many pre-built PCs often rely on cash incentives from software companies to support their prices. These companies pay hardware manufacturers to pre-install limited or trial versions of their software, hoping that customers will eventually opt to upgrade to the full version. Unfortunately, this approach has a downside: it fills the new PC with unnecessary “junkware,” leading to an inflated operating system and performance issues.
At Quiet PC, we firmly believe that customers deserve the utmost performance from their brand new PCs. That’s why we proudly offer our Clean Build™ promise with every system we build. When you choose one of our PCs, we install only the essentials: the operating system (if requested), motherboard drivers, OS updates and Windows Security. Say goodbye to annoying pop-ups and nag screens. With our clean build promise you can immediately start using your new PC without the hassle of uninstalling numerous unwanted programs. Experience lightning-fast boot times and enjoy optimal performance for 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.
