The Elite I bought on Sunday is Falcon, I'd checked before I even left the shop

ahh bugger

203w elite although I did buy it when it was first released so I guess I had little chance

Why did I have to read this thread lol.

I don't have a box for my new one, it was a console for console swap, so I don't know

hmm, iv sent mine back for repair, anyone know if they replace the old heatsinks etc with new falcon stuff?

ive heard the "Falcon" PSU is different to the normal PSU as another way to spot it. However some "Falcon" machines come with the old PSU too.

managed to get a falcon arcade last month with the older 203psu confirmed by checking for the missing inductor through the side meshing
