There are plenty of companies out there… but Falcon's got an Ace There are plenty of companies out there making custom built gaming and creative machines. Many of them are very talented at what they do, and FalconNorthwest is no different. Rest assured, you will get a machine made from your choice of a good spread of hardware options, and it will look clean and excellently assembled, from the paint, to the cable management, to every screw. Shipping materials are carefully designed to make sure your machine gets there safe and sound. No bloat-ware at all to worry about like some other builders either. What makes Falcon truly stand out from the rest of the pack, is their service and commitment to their machines. I have had a few issues with one of mine, a TLX laptop. On all occasions, Falcon did their best to quickly help over email, and when the issue needed the machine to be sent in, they cover overnight shipping both ways and get it back as soon as possible. When my TLX model was nearing the end of its warranty and had a reoccurring fan issue show up again for the second time, Falcon went out of their way to send a brand new TLX machine, of the current generation parts and chassis, completely free of charge. You can buy a great computer anywhere, but you cannot buy the piece of mind you get with Falcon Northwest's support team.

The system arrived in a working but unreliable condition The system arrived in a working but unreliable condition. After MANY hours troubleshooting with their tech support, they determined the video card was no good. They shipped me a new one, I popped it in, and things were looking good. Until the system refused to boot one day. After more hours troubleshooting, they helped me determine that one of the m2 SSD drives was bad. Again they warrantied but seriously for all the money I spent having to spend so many hours of my own time troubleshooting is infuriating. 100% wish I did my own build.

FALCON NORTHWEST - EXCELLENT IN EVERY WAY I would like to bring to your attention the excellent support I’ve received from the technical team members of Falcon Northwest. Recently, I have had issues with my Talon. All of my emails are answered within a day and are very detailed, some with photos to further help me understand what actions I have to take. When a telephone conversation is necessary, I have never been rushed nor has there been any indication of too much time being spent by the support staff regarding explanations or instructions. This holds true for all past tech support contacts as this is my second Talon with the first still operating after 14 years. Ever since purchasing my first Talon, I can’t count the times I’ve told people about the extreme high quality of Falcon Northwest computers and the excellent, above and beyond efforts of the support staff! This also holds true for the sales personnel. When ordering a new computer, they first ask what it will mainly be used for and then suggest which components should be considered. In my experience, when I mentioned I was considering more costly options, they kindly mentioned it really wasn’t needed and I wouldn’t benefit in performance for my needs. In closing, for all the topics mentioned above, I will continue to recommend Falcon Northwest to anyone who is considering purchasing a new computer!

Super computer in a laptop I never expected the performance I would get from my Falcon Northwest DRX laptop, it exceeds all expectations. The assistance I received while configuring it and ordering it was personal and outstanding. If you're in the market for a high performance gaming or graphics system I feel you can't do any better

Please don’t review while angry Please, please, please disregard the two obviously angry posts? The ignorant, negative and completely false bashing of Falcon Northwest caught my eye. I am a lifelong supporter of their truly gifted builders and support staff. I can only imagine how hard it is to deal with some of the crazy ideas people try to have you make. I learned quickly that your entire business model revolves around superior customer support for your superior products. I’m other words—it is in their best interest to make their PCs fast and most importantly reliable. I don’t want to take the time to write a dumb comment, that nobody is going to read, as much as the next guy!” However, I can’t let that weird “256GB of RAM dude” have the last word. I think I was Kelt’s 12th customer? Maybe 112, something like that? This is around 1992—before there was such a thing as a “Gaming PC!” I needed a video rendering machine, but lacked the tens of thousands needed back then. So they built a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Then technology changed, as it does. So I had another great machine built. My first Mach5 outlasted two generations of the inferior gaming PC builders that flooded the market around the turn of the century. My final Mach IV was and still is a beauty. Which brings me to my main point. The only reason my poor old girl can still run AAA 3D games and render a scene without exploding is the PEOPLE of Falcon Northwest. For those of you who realize what kind of company this is and still don’t like their “callback” policy, I would suggest listening to it. They do call back promptly (well I’m assuming that the Global Pandemic has affected them lately? I’m assuming yes, as it has the entire world…so come on difficult 256 RAM guy? Take it down a notch) Yes. I am buying another, soon.
