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.

Great customer service Before purchasing a computer I emailed support to ask questions that would help inform my purchase. the person I was put in contact with answered my question, read in between the lines and answered questions I wasn't willing to ask outright. when my computer was delayed in was given a clear explanation as to why and how long I could expect to wait. the final thing reason I am giving a five star review for this is that I both know for certain I was speaking with a human and that he wasn't using a script. Thank you Warren Bowdoin!

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.

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.
