12/8/2023 0 Comments Falcon northwest tiki case![]() The Tiki Z plowed through our benchmarks, proving a small yet properly built PC can punch above its weight.Ĭrystal DiskMark’s read/write results were equally impressive, at 987 megabytes per second read, and 865MB/s write. On the top of the case you’ll also find two readily accessible USB 3.0 ports, another audio out jack, and an additional microphone in. Two Wi-Fi antennas line an RJ45 Ethernet jack and SPDIF out closely, and the Tiki also comes with a single PS/2 input to accommodate any older keyboards and mice you might have laying around. The motherboard is stocked with four USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0, and three audio jacks, representing line in/out, with an extra slot for the microphone on the side. On the back of the Tiki you’ll find two HDMI 2.0 ports and two DVI, courtesy of the Titan Z. It seems the company knew which features would define this computer, and actively decided to accentuate them without being tacky. The Falcon Northwest logo is emblazoned by white LEDs on the front of the rig, and on the side the Titan Z is gently lit by the same color scheme. Its svelte, clean lines blend into a heavy, sturdy base, and everything about it reminds you it’s been built to make a statement. On the outside, though, the Tiki screams sexy. Replacing the processor is a particularly difficult task, as the motherboard must be taken out of the case to remove the CPU cooler. The air vents on the side line up perfectly with those of the Titan Z, which makes sense considering the case was laser cut for the card, and the cables for the CPU liquid-cooler have but a few millimeters to move around once the outer shell is cracked open. The RAM is hard to access until the hard drives are moved, and the same goes for the video card, which is installed at a 90-degree angle to its normal orientation through the use of a PCI spacer card. While the hard drives can be replaced the process requires a little patience and the removal of numerous screws. A metal bracket holds both solid state drives, the mechanical drive and the optical drive into place. Much like iBuyPower’s SBX, the case of the Tiki is meticulously designed to fit every component that’s been slipped inside without a centimeter of excess space. ![]() Despite mixed reviews, the RTX 4060 is moving the needle for NvidiaĪlienware just changed everything you know about its desktopsĪcer’s new Predator Orion X is an RTX 4090 desktop I might actually buyĬan you have a great gaming experience without sacrificing legroom?
