Falcon Computers Dead Silence Kaveri Gaming BattleRig Review

Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0 x64.
HDD
Performance of the mechanical hard drive is about as good as we could expect, scoring around 195 MB/s and 177 MB/s in the sequential read and write test, respectively.

The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage systems performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customize your performance measurement including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously. Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturers RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage.
atto
The impressive scores are mirrored in ATTO, hitting over 200 MB/s peak rates.

In real world terms however, we knew immediately that this system wasn't using a Solid State Drive. If you are lucky to already own a new Solid State Drive you will know what I mean – overall system performance can be sluggish without one, even with a cutting edge Core i7 processor. The Falcon Kaveri system takes around 35 seconds to boot up and become responsive and some programs can take a while to load.

We do appreciate that adding a Solid State Drive to this build would have increased the retail price for Falcon, but if I owned this system myself I really would feel the need to add one, improving boot times and overall system responsiveness.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.

    I like the options in the configuator. I would add a GPU myself, doesn’t need to be much.
