![]() ![]() It’s got a sort of abstract charm that I can’t deny. While I could do without all the Intel text on this rig, I actually kind of like the art on the side panels, which is very high quality in terms of application. If you order directly from Falcon Northwest, you can basically customize your Talon to look however you want, making this somewhat of a moot point. Luckily, this is solely a review unit, which for all intents and purposes is advertising only to me (the absolute horror), so it’s not a huge deal. Changeable of course via software, but still. Even the integrated RGB - which extends from the falcon logo on the front of the Talon to the cooling block and fans within- dons the famous ‘Intel blue’ color scheme. If we’re being totally honest, the whole thing is basically a glaring Intel advertisement, and if that sort of thing bothers you, then you probably won’t be into what’s going on here. ![]() Giant Intel text adorns the top and front panels, while automotive-grade blue and yellow Alder Lake art is plastered all over the sides. Falcon Northwest has worked closely (and down to the wire) with Intel for the launch of Alder Lake and rather appropriately emblazoned the entire case with Intel imagery. My review unit isn’t just any Talon, though. The exclusivity certainly adds some mystique to FNW’s reputation, as you just don’t see these Talon cases very often. You can look far and wide, but you won’t find the Talon anywhere else, not even sold separately for DIY building projects. In addition to the general posh buying experience, Falcon Northwest sets itself apart from other system integrators with its bespoke Talon chassis. Lastly, there’s an extensive ‘Getting Started’ guide that goes into instructions like how to resituate the liquid cooling system to expel any air bubbles that may have built up during shipping and tips on keeping the rig running both clean and fast.
