It is mainly for well-off gamers & enthusiasts and offers everything the one except from an ultra power gaming desktop.

Build & Design

Both exteriors and interiors of the Falcon Northwest Mach V has been intelligently designed. The desktop comes with a shining red automotive paint job and the case shade morphs from a forest green to a purple haze as one walks around the system. The hard drive inside the system faces inwards and the machine door is at the lower half of the front panel. The fan of Mach V is hidden behind the door and opened when the system is switched off to maintain the system. Presence of Intel Core processor makes it fast. It also features a Blu-ray burner drive and a 12 GB RAM.

Keyboard & Mouse

The replacement of DPI button with Logitech G9’s is hardly satisfying for the kinds of game we can play on this desktop. While typing, you will not feel any trouble with the keyboard.
