To test the Falcon Project X VR Ready Gaming PC, we have pushed it through a broad array of benchmarks and tests. We have tested CPU performance, GPU performance, drive performance, thermals and power usage to give a comprehensive view of the desktop.
Here are the benchmarks you can expect to find in this review:
- Cinebench R15
- CrystalDiskMark
- 3DMark Fire Strike
- VRMark
The Falcon Project X VR Ready Gaming PC has an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card. To that end, we’ve also used high-end games to put the GPU through its paces.
- Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
- Rise of the Tomb Raider
We’ve compared the Falcon to three keen rivals.
The Overclockers UK Cobalt is a £1,235 machine with an overclocked Core i3 processor, the 6GB version of the GTX 1060 graphics card and 16GB of memory.
The PC Specialist Enigma Pro costs just under £900 and serves up a GTX 1070 for that money – but elsewhere you get a weaker Core i3-8100 processor and no SSD.
The final challenger is the £1,199 CyberPower Infinity X66 GTX, which has an overclocked Core i5-8600K processor and the 6GB GTX 1060 graphics card.
