Falcon Northwest Talon (Intel Core i7) Reviewed on 09/07/2009

The Bottom Line: Falcon Northwest's revamped, mainstream-oriented Talon gaming desktop puts its best redesigned foot forward with a new case and a strong, price-competitive configuration built around Intel's latest batch of Core i7 CPUs. Shop around, as many vendors will have adopted Intel's new chips, but for this build at this price, Falcon Northwest sets the example to beat.

Specs: Intel Core i7 860 (3.3 Hz), 8 GB DDR3 SDRAM, 1500 GB Standard, Dual nVidia GeForce GTX 275, Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit Edition

Falcon Northwest FragBox 2 (Intel Core i7) Reviewed on 04/03/2009

The Bottom Line: In a normal economy, we'd expect that Falcon Northwest's new Core i7 FragBox 2 would wow us with fast performance in a compact case. Instead, the price of this system as configured has been severely undercut by a competitor. An improved warranty takes the edge off somewhat, but the new market reality makes it hard to recommend this PC.
