PC Advisor have published a review of the Palicomp Core i7 Blitz 930-24 desktop PC. 'The Palicomp Core i7 Blitz 930-24 comes with the same ATI Radeon HD 5870 graphics card found in most of the competition, while its 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 930 processor is faster than the Arbico's Core i7 920. With 142 points in our WorldBench 6 real-world speed test, the Blitz came in a close second to the (£200 more expensive) CyberPower. The Core i7 Blitz 930-24's graphics performance is also very good. Palicomp has selected a stock version of the HD 5870 in comparison to the overclocked speed-boosted models chosen by Arbico and Eclipse, but the differences are minor.'

CNET have published a review of the Falcon Northwest Talon (Intel Core i7) gaming desktop PC. 'Inside the case, Falcon Northwest provides the Talon with its usual attention to detail. A sheet of sound-dampening foam on the side panel helps keep the noise down. Thanks to a modular power supply, Falcon has minimized the cable clutter inside the Talon, but we were surprised to find that some of the cables could have been secured more effectively. The Talon chassis doesn't provide quite as much room for finesse as the Mach V, so we'll give Falcon some leeway here, especially because the smart case design makes removing the hard drives so easy.'
