Falcon Northwest Mach V

 The Falcon Northwest Mach V is another Core i7 machine. According to reviews, the machine performs well (passed CNETs 60 frames per second high-resolution Crysis test) but costs an organ selling $11,000 if you go with the best of the best configuration options. By reducing the quality of the parts, and the ridiculousness of the case design, the Falcon Northwest Mach V can be reduced down to its base configuration price of $2,657. This is more affordable but it is important to keep in mind that this budget option is not the creature the reviews rave about. The budget base option has a 2.66GHz Intel Core i7-920 processor, 6GB DDR3, 1,066MHz memory, NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT 512MB graphics card, and a 250GB, 7,200 rpm hard drive.
