Beauty and power in your living room
We are pleased to announce an updated AMD version of the very popular Sidewinder living room PC design - the ‘Sidewinder Fanless Z2’. With its design goal being focussed on beauty, the machine is 435mm wide by only 60mm high and is sure to look great at the centre of any home entertainment system. The machine is supplied in a shot-blasted silver or black finish and its fascia is clean, elegant and uncluttered. Only the power button, power light and remote control sensor (option) are visible on the front of the case.
Top Performance and Reliability
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. This PC can also be configured with up to a whopping 64GB of DDR4 RAM and there is a large range of 2.5” storage drives available.
Despite its diminutive size, it packs a real punch thanks to being equipped with one of AMD’s 5000 series APUs. These processors gives fantastic performance and low power consumption, allowing the machine to be cooled without any forced air whatsoever. The whole case acts as a processor heatsink, with heat being efficiently transferred from the CPU to the chassis via four copper heatpipes.
HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 Built-in
The ASRock motherboard features one HDMI 2.1 and a DisplyPort 1.4 port, which means when paired with an AMD APU it is easily able to output a resolution of 4096 x 2160 while running at 60Hz for flicker free images. This makes this motherboard and an AMD APU the perfect match if you are looking to drive a 4K TV/Monitor, as all the APUs available for this PC are equipped with Radeon Vega Graphics for immersive visuals.
Radeon Graphics
AMD’s Ryzen 5000 series processors with a “G” suffix feature Radeon graphics built right into the CPU. The performance of the graphics on these processors out performs any other onboard graphics previously released. The number within “Radeon Graphics” indicates how many graphics cores each processor has. For example, the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics 7, has a total off seven graphics cores. The larger the number the greater the performance.
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.
