The Titan comes with the 13th Generation Intel Core i9 Processor and Microsoft Windows 11, which is the best combination for traders using ThinkorSwim. Through testing we have seen ToS performance improve significatly when Windows 11 is installed on lesser trading computers. Add to that the performance boost from the 13th Gen Intel i9—with its superior task management abilities—and you have the perfect combination to run ThinkorSwim, or any other trading program.
When building an F-1 at Falcon, the objective is always to create a desktop computer functionally and aesthetically outstanding. The 13th Gen Intel Core-i9 processors allow unprecedented processing power.
John F. Carter is one of the best-known names in trading who shares his extensive knowledge with traders all over the world. At his Simpler Trading website, you can learn how to trade options in their elite insiders' club of options traders worldwide. As an experienced professional trader John leads community members through live trades daily while explaining strategies, significant market opportunities, and daily trading lessons. For both the new and experienced trader.
John uses a Falcon F-1 with a 6 monitor array. His computer has a six-core Intel processor, 32GB of memory and six monitors..
One of the prominent features of the F-1 is the custom liquid cooling system. Under full load, the processor can generate over 300 watts of heat. If this heat is not removed, it will throttle itself down to cool off. With the F-1 there is no throttling down due to high temperatures. The F-1 cooling loop is powered by the best pump in the industry: The 1,000 L/hr D5 pump with ceramic ball bearings. The radiators are extra-large with an outstanding thermal transfer capacity. The chemistry of the liquid is set to prevent corrosion of the copper and nickel surfaces. Some computer builders use All-In-One (AIO) liquid cooling devices that are cheap and are no better than a very good air cooler. You cannot sustain maximum Giga-FLOPs for long with such low-cost cooling devices. Our cooling system is the best, and it separates the F-1 from the rest.
The other computer builders build computers with only a vague understanding of what is needed because they are not traders. We started as traders in 1999 and built computers for ourselves. Now we also build them for you. We are still traders, and that informs us of how we can make much better trading computers.
Our Technical Support staff comprises of experts with hands-on training and experience. Our Administrative staff is highly knowledgeable. Our top technicians have been with us for many years. When you call other computer manufacturers, you often get automated systems, minimally trained people, and headaches. We have a different philosophy here at Falcon.
New computers undergo extensive testing to make sure that they are 100% ready for rigorous service. Performance testing determines the correct settings to tune the computer for maximum stability, realization, and reliability. Non-destructive stress testing is performed to discover components currently functioning but are weak and will fail quickly.
Falcon Trading System® computers undergo an extensive series of tests to ensure that they are 100% ready for rigorous service. Performance testing determines the correct settings to tune the computer for maximum stability, realization, and reliability. Non-destructive stress testing is performed to discover components that are currently functioning but are weak and will fail quickly. Extensive static electricity controls in our production process prevent degradation of the components prior to shipment.
Twenty percent of our sales are to customers outside the US but regardless of where they live we see over 60% return to buy another computer from us. The best testimony you can have is a lot of return customers. We often hear that they will never buy a computer from anyone else. One of our most frequent return customers is a commodities trading company in Denmark with offices in Switzerland.
