So it would be safer to say that if you see 175W on the box, you’re sure it’s a Falcon, but it may be a Falcon even if you don’t.

Both of my new elites I had said 203w on the box, but is a falcon because it has the new heat sync. So this isn't a sure tell way of knowing. The only way to tell for sure is to look in there with a flashlight and see for yourself.

Of course if the box says 175W, then thats a sign right there. Also check the power brick to see if the power brick is 175W and check the console itself for the newer 175w power supply.
