The Ghost Protocol

PINK PARSNIP COMPUTERS LISTING // GHOST PROTOCOL The Ghost Protocol Serious performance. Zero noise. Built to disappear into the background — literally. A Ryzen 9 9900X and RTX 5070 gaming & creator PC, engineered from the ground up around one brief: hit big frame rates without anyone in the room hearing it happen. All-black, all-stealth, all quiet.

Before anything went in the trolley, we cross-checked independent reviews and real noise/performance testing on each part — CPU, cooler, GPU, storage, PSU, the lot — balancing raw performance against reliability and, above all, noise. That's why the cooler isn't just "a big one" — it's the option that measurably beat its rivals on acoustics without giving up cooling headroom. It's why the graphics card was picked over near-identical competitors specifically because independent testing showed it running quieter under load. Nothing in this build made the cut on looks or price alone. The result: a rig that hits serious frame rates without sounding like one. Top Trumps — Honest Scores No inflated marketing. Just where this build actually sits. Scored against the full range of builds we sell — not against fantasy benchmarks.

Genuinely quiet. The cooler and PSU were both picked specifically because independent lab testing showed them producing some of the lowest dBA readings in their class — not because the box says "quiet" on it. The Define 7 case adds sound-dampened panels on top of that. 🎮 What can I actually expect in games? Smooth, high-refresh 1440p gaming across the board — see the Real Game Performance figures above. This is a 1440p-first build; it'll handle 4K in lighter titles too, but 1440p is where it really shines. 🎧 Is this good for music production too? Yes. The Ryzen 9 9900X's 12 cores/24 threads give it real headroom for DAW work — large track counts, sample libraries, and plugin-heavy sessions — not just gaming. 🔧 Can I upgrade this later? Yes — this build sits on AMD's AM5 platform, which is set to receive new CPU generations for years to come. The motherboard also supports PCIe 5.0, so you're not just future-proofed on the CPU side. 💾 Are the storage drives new? Yes, both SSDs are brand new, sealed retail units — not refurbished. Full manufacturer warranties apply. PINK PARSNIP COMPUTERS Family-run. Honestly priced. Quietly powerful.
