Intel Alder Lake 14th Gen Processor
The 14th Gen Intel processors bring improvements over previous generations, offering enhanced performance through the use of improved Performance-cores (P-cores) and Efficient-cores (E-cores). These cores are optimised to deliver impressive results in both single and lightly-threaded tasks, as well as highly-threaded workloads. This optimisation allows gamers, creators, and professionals to unlock the full potential of their systems and elevate their experiences.
To provide you with a glimpse of the improvements offered by the 14th Gen Intel processors compared to the 13th Gen, the table below showcases some PassMark CPU Benchmarks. Higher numbers in the benchmarks indicate better overall performance, helping you understand the notable performance gains delivered by the 14th Gen processors.
14th Gen Processor | Core i5 14500 | Core i7 14700 | Core i9 14900 |
---|---|---|---|
PassMark score | 32,483 | 47,650 | 52,447 |
13th Gen Processor | Core i5 13400 | Core i7 13700 | Core i9 13900 |
---|---|---|---|
PassMark score | 24,986 | 37,893 | 48,024 |
The figures above are as of March 2024. They do change over time.
These benchmarks demonstrate the improved performance capabilities of the 14th Gen processors, highlighting their ability to handle a wide range of tasks with increased efficiency and power. Whether you are a gamer, content creator, or professional user, the 14th Gen Intel processors aim to deliver a significant boost in performance and productivity.
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 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.
Large selection of cases available
As already mentioned we have a number of cases that are available in the configurator below. We have only added cases to this list that suit a gaming PC. They all feature a windowed side panel and many of them also including RGB fans and lightstrips. For more information on each case, please click the ‘?’ after product on the configurator.
Motherboard Features and Options
This particular computer utilises either a ASUS B660 or the Z790 chipset. Each motherboard offer improved connectivity like PCIe 4 speeds for all connected M.2 drives, 2.5Gb/s LAN, Wi-Fi 6 and USB 3.2 Gen2x2 USB ports. The Z790 chipset has improved connectivity over the B660, it offers more faster USB ports, an extra M.2 socket and the potential of M.2 RAID. Below are images of each motherboard available in this system with a table that shows some of the specifications each motherboard offers.
ASUS B660 | ASUS Z790 | |
---|---|---|
M.2 ports | 3 | 4 |
Rear USB 3.2 Gen2x2 ports, 20Gbps | 1 (Type-C) | 1 (Type-C) |
Rear USB 3.2 Gen2 ports, 10Gbps | 1 (red) | 3 (teal, x1 Type-C) |
Rear USB 3.2 Gen1 ports, 5Gbps | 2 (blue) | 4 (blue) |
RAID Support | 0 and 1 SATA RAID only | 0 and 1 SATA and M.2 RAID |
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.

Customer Reviews
Pretty good pc for a pre built compared to what most offer
I really like that you can see the exact part you’re getting instead of just “RTX 3080” instead you know it’s either an Asus or MSI card and which one at that like a Tuf. Though after receiving it, some screws were loose and rattling around (probably from international transport) but wasn’t a big deal, just needed to find a screwdriver.
Overall, very good pc But be a little worried if you want one shipped to the US or overseas in general as shipping can rattle it around.
