Here we present some pictures of our fully-built system, as well as a discussion of the pros and cons of building in the Game Max Falcon.

To cut to the chase, building in the Falcon is an absolute breeze. I was able to route all the cables through several cut-outs – which is something you can never take for granted at this price-point. This made the finished system look very clean and tidy, with no cables trailing across the motherboard or anything like that.

Given my previous bad experience with the cable management options of the Corsair Carbide SPEC-ALPHA (HERE), which actually costs double the price of the Falcon, this is a definite success for the Falcon.

There are 3 main cut-outs in the middle of the case – perfect for routing your motherboard's 24-pin power cable.

The PSU shroud also features another 3 cut-outs which helps keep your front panel connectors hidden.

I was equally happy with how things turned out behind the motherboard tray.

There are plenty of cable tie-down points which makes things easy to keep under control, and removing the hard drive caddies also allows excess cabling to be tucked away out-of-sight.

I was also amazed at just how much room there is behind the motherboard tray – the thick 24-pin cable did not protrude out at all, and I got the side panel back on with no problems whatsoever. For a first time builder, this is ideal – I remember my first PC had terrible cable management and I struggled getting the side panel back on! With the Falcon, though, building a tidy PC is easy.

Above we get a look at the system powered-on. The different colours you can see come solely from the two RGB fans at the front of the case – they are nice and bright, with good coverage across the case. That being said, if you have a compatible RGB strip, you can actually connect this to the small RGB controller to extend the lighting further.

A small infrared remote is used to choose between difference colour options, while it also lets you make the colour ‘breathe', and there are also 5 ‘demo' modes – these demo modes are essentially fast alternations between the different colours available, disco-style.
