Prebuilt PC companies should take notes...

Thanks so much for the kind words Jay! For 31 years now we've been trying to build PC designs you won't find anywhere else, and to impress you is an honor! For anyone wondering if Jay covers sponsored videos any differently than non-sponsored: I can tell you from this experience, he doesn't. Just check out his coverage of our Tiki & FragBox systems - that were not sponsored- earlier this year and see if his scrutiny on build quality or thermal performance was any different. We wanted to support the folks that create this great channel we've watched for years, and knew Jay would still call the balls and strikes where he saw them. We've still got our work cut out for us trying to convince him our 280mm rad will match a 360mm though! 😆

Falcon Northwest is what Alienware aspired to be before giving up and selling out to Dell.

I remember when they advertised in PC Gamer and other computer magazine, and wanting to get one of their systems. Glad to see they're still doing good.

4000 dollars for a 4060 i5 system is an absolute joke.

Falcon NW are the OG high end system integrators. Glad to see you never sold out and remain the gold standard.

Never imagined Falcon Northwest would hold out this long , I remember when they came out when I was a little kid getting into computers , I used there builds as ideas and parts to use and years later they quietly made PCs with little to no exposure on YouTube and to see them pop up on your channel is awesome

This might have been my favorite video all year from you, jay! Wow! I absolutely love seeing the GOOD companies like this getting the respect and coverage they truly deserve. For Someone like me who is getting to the "more disposable income, but less time" part of my life and gaming, I love seeing that I do actually have options for a prebuilt in the future. Not only a PC I can trust, but one I could truly be proud of owning. Seriously, thank you for this content.

we need an undercover buy from them and compare the two builds.

the "anti sack mount" of the 4090 and the "carpet protecting" are really impressive and especially the "carpet protection should be more in common on all cases (simple solution for a big problem!). there are far too many computers not placed on the table / a small bench / side table next to the table above the carpet.

Well Jay, I am 100% getting a build from these guys because of you shouting them out with this incredible video. I just called in to ask a couple questions and let them know you brought me there. The gentleman on the phone laughed and said you were very nice to them. Keep up the stellar videos.

Their ads on early 2000s PC magazines have always been eye-catching. I first learned, from the way Falcon NW built PCs back then, that floppy and IDE cables could be folded flat in a way that keeps the bulk of them on the same plane as the MOBO and thus stay out of the way of airflow. Even as sleeved and rounded IDE cables became the norm, I still preferred the flat IDE ribbon cables since round cables could never get tucked out of the way. Glad they're still doing well!

One of my client owns one of these Falcon NW builds and it is NICE! didnt realize all the quality of life advantages till this video, they speak very highly of the customer support and overall pride in their machine.

I saw Falcon Northwest the same year my oldest was born...1999. I've always wanted one. Got one (Talon) three years ago. Was so pleased I bought the FNW build team and Warren, my sales guy, pizza via DoorDash. Best ever. Love them. Love the warranty too. One of my best purchases.

I remember wanting a FNW computer back in, like, 2002. they were the best back then and I'm not surprised they're still the best.

I was 10 when I first saw a PC made by Falcon Northwest on an Italian PC Gaming magazine, I just loved their custom paintjobs, when there was a thing called “modding” and PCs were just grey boxes. I’m glad they are still around and they still hold tight to their values.

This was a great review. Thanks for doing this video. It’s so awesome to see a prebuilt that has quality and organization. I can actually point out this to my buddies who are not interested in building their own.

My old boss, when I worked for a pc repair shop had a one of there pcs and it was pretty amazing for the time. There case was well thought out and some companies still struggle with that.

Thanks Jay, this was a cool and interesting episode - I like seeing the different airflow designs and also the way they kept the GPU mounted properly unlike other manufactures and that wiring job - good stuff, liked!

That little fan in the back validates a mod I get on my own system years ago. I built my current system 5 or 6 years ago when 8700K came out. And it's built in the original cooler Master H500P. Which before the mesh version had plexiglass on the front and top panels. I bought it based purely on the fact that I liked how it looked but when reviews came out it was obvious it had deficiencies. So I actually purchased a BeQuiet 80mm fan that I mounted to the lower PCIe slot covers using zip ties to help bring in fresh air to feed my GPU.

Back when I first got into the PC gaming scene(1999) Falcon NW was my first machine. It was a great machine to get into things. I moved on to building my own on the next machine. Glad to see they are still around.
