Arctic has launched the Senza AI 370, a fanless desktop computer powered by AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor. The system features a 12-core, 24-thread CPU based on Zen 5 architecture and Radeon 890M integrated graphics with 16 RDNA 3.5 GPU compute units. What makes it stand out is its completely passive cooling system with no moving parts, allowing for silent operation while handling a processor that typically requires active cooling.
The passively cooled design comes with tradeoffs in size. The Senza AI 370 measures 53.6 cm (21.1 inches) wide, 18 cm (7.1 inches) deep, and 5 cm (2 inches) tall, making it larger than typical mini PCs. Arctic positions the motherboard and key components in the center with large heat sinks on both sides, and the company says this design keeps the processor 17 degrees Celsius cooler than competing fanless systems. The system is designed to mount underneath a desk, and Arctic offers an optional front panel accessory measuring 9.6 x 5.6 x 1.6 cm (3.8 x 2.2 x 0.6 inches) that provides easy access to USB Type-C, Type-A, and 3.5mm audio ports.
The base configuration includes 32GB of LPDDR5x-8000 memory, a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, WiFi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, and 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet. Connectivity includes one USB4 Type-C port with 40 Gbps speeds, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports (10 Gbps), two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.1, and multiple audio jacks. The system supports up to three displays and comes with Windows 11 Pro.
Arctic lists the Senza AI 370 as Linux compatible, though the HX 370 platform requires Linux kernel 6.10 or later and Mesa 24.1 or newer for proper support of the Radeon 890M graphics. The Slimbook One, another HX 370 mini PC, ships with Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, or Linux Mint preloaded, demonstrating that the platform works with mainstream distributions when running recent software.
The Arctic Senza AI 370 is available now in Europe for €1,200 ($1,390) with free shipping.
