Pretty quiet. Go ahead, run everything at once while you try to hack the NSA: Youve got 8 GB of RAM. Combination Bluray and HDDVD drive. The best allaround PC of the bunch.
Load times are quick, but those drives wont help games play any speedier. Airbrushed aluminum case aint exactly pretty. You can game faster for half the price.
Strong gaming and multimedia performance. 1.6TB of total storage for archiving a large library of games and media files.
Super-expensive. Lacks an HD optical drive.
Overall, the Falcon Northwest Mach V (GTX 280 SLI) is an enthusiasts dream machine with strong gaming and speedy multimedia performance. For $10K, however, youd expect the best of the best, and though it comes close, this Falcon falls a bit short....
Abstract: Falcon Northwest recently shipped a high-end Mach V system to our offices here in San Francisco. Three elegant black boxes arrived bearing the Falcon emblem. Covered in a cloth-like shroud, we found our Mach V nestled inside a monolith of a box. The Ma...
Outstanding gaming performance (especially with DirectX 9 settings); attractive, intelligently designed interior and exterior
Expensive; no front headphone or microphone jacks; only one hard drive and optical drive at this price
Its neither the fastest nor the most expensive of the current top-of-the-line Penryn machines, but Falcon Northwests Mach V still offers plenty of gaming power, for an expectedly high price. ...
Outstanding current-generation gaming and application performance; top-notch build quality; overnight shipping coverage for repairs.
Too many uncertainties make it impossible to evaluate this system for DirectX 10 gaming; $1,000 price premium for aggressive overclocking and overnight shipping might not be worth it to more seasoned users.
This newest Falcon Northwest Mach V isnt shy about its price tag, but it also dominated our gaming tests thanks to two fast ATI 3D cards and an overall top-notch configuration. The current uncertainty regarding next-gen PC gaming is the only issue hol...
Blazing gaming performance in Windows XP. Blazing multimedia performance. More than 1 terabyte of drive space. Falcon NW can install dual-boot of Windows XP/Vista.
Performance dependent on driver revisions. Vista still isnt quite ready for gaming. Costs a lot of money, even if you skip the custom paint option.
The newest quad-core processor arrives in the latest Falcon Northwest Mach V. As expected, the system is fast, well-built, and expensive. Its a system for enthusiasts looking for something to brag about and blazing benchmark-test numbers....
Fastest gaming PC weve ever seen; somewhat less expensive than the competition; quiet; pristine interior.
The overclocking might be a little too aggressive; digital media archivists will want more storage space; Blu-ray costs extra.
Falcon Northwest continues its tradition of building the fastest gaming PCs around. This one comes with Intels quad-core chip clocked higher than weve ever seen before, and its resulting game performance sets new records. You might want to bolster so...
Intel quad-core CPU (overclocked to 3.6 GHz). Two nVidia GeForce 8800 GTX graphics cards in SLI mode. Custom paint job makes for a very personal system.
Really expensive. Case is getting a little long in the tooth.
Falcon Northwest updates its venerable Mach V gaming system with quad-core graphics and dual nVidia GeForce 8800 GTX graphics cards. The CPU adds a little kick, but the paired 8800 GTX cards are the real stars here, pushing frame rates up to surreal le...
