Moving inside the Falcon – on first look the chassis appears well-equipped to house a full-fat desktop system.

There are plenty of cut-outs for cable management, and there is even a PSU shroud – another great feature that I love to see included in any case.

There are two 120mm, RGB fans at the front of the case as well – these are controlled by a small remote control. On the next page we take a look at some of the colour options available.

At the rear of the chassis is another 120mm fan – thought this is not RGB sadly. All three fans arrive pre-wired to the fan controller as well, so you do not even have to worry about sorting that out. We should hopefully see good cooling performance from the 3 fans as well – this is something we look at later in the review.

Before looking behind the motherboard tray, it is also worth mentioning that the Falcon actually supports 2x 5.25″ external drives, something that is now becoming quite a rare inclusion.  Game Max have been quite clever with the design, too, as the drive bays themselves are not full-length – they extend only slightly in to the case, making the inside of the system look a bit cleaner.

Behind the motherboard tray there are more good features to point out. For one, there is a large cut-out in the motherboard tray which should make accessing your CPU cooler backplate very easy.

There is also a removable dust-filter for the PSU. It is not mounted using a rails-and-sliders system, but any filtration is better than nothing. This is especially the case as, due to the PSU shroud, you will likely be installing your PSU fan facing downwards – otherwise the PSU shroud would probably choke your power supply for air. As such, it is good to see a PSU dust-filter here to prevent unwanted dust build-up in your power supply.

Under the shroud we also find a pair of 3.5″ drive bays. The drives mount to removable caddies – installation is also tool-less, another great feature of the Falcon.

Lastly, there is also a 2.5″ caddy that sits directly behind the motherboard. This is an ideal spot for your SSD.
