You do pretty damn good on arcade though.
Eh, but that's when all the FMs and DMs are absolutely nothing like how they would normally be (you can fly and turn perfectly fine with a crit wing or fuselage, etc. in arcade). That and you can sustain flat turns and regain energy much, much faster.
You are already playing pretty well compared to the average player there. Just need to work on your aim.
If I have trouble shooting a bi-plane in a typhoon, I think that says a lot.
That was terrible though. I only shot down one. XD Not used do having a crit wing affect my flight performance so much, but that's Arcade for you.
My best match of HB though was probably when we were flying Ki-61's and I shot down 2 Yak-9's.
My PSU's cables are too short to reach the 8pin CPU plug on the mobo up top. So I had to route it beneath the GPU and chipset and then to the IO panel to get to the connector up top.
I used two adapters for my second GPU so they are a mess POS as you can see. Nothing I can do about it.
The PSU also isn't fully modular so I had to stuff all the remaining cbales in the back of the case.
The SSD you can't see. I have it mounted on a tray right below the first two HDD's
Eh...looks a bit messy...
And that 8-pin connector is really bothering me, but I saw your explanation for why.
I really don't undestand the aesthetic behind high-profile vengeance heatsinks. They look butt-ugly to me. They sort of look like G.Skill Ripjaws X gone wrong (and in high profile. Heatsink fins are tilted outwards, ugly, ugly stickers, etc.).
And then I don't know why I hate Corsair. They have decent products, although often with a few crucial design flaws that kill it for me. Also, the amount they charge for RAM binning is ridiculous (staring at those Dominators, Dominator GTs, and Dominator Platinums). Other companies also bin their chips as well (Mushkin, Crucial, Kingston, G.Skill, etc.) and they don't charge nearly as much as Corsair.
The other thing that annoys me is that all of their PSUs are rebrands. It's not necessarily a bad thing but it just happens to bother me. They do have great customer support though from what I've heard. They've replaced almost an entire rig since one of their AIO coolers leaked on the user.
Push/pull? For what? I haven't seen any real benefits running push/pull.

Pretty good benefits.
Am I the only one running 3 120 blowing in and single 120 exhaust + psu exhaust (+ small gfx card ven). It keep dust out and kept my overclocked rig rather cool but still being virtually silent.
So many symmetrical setups it seems.
I use positive pressure. I didn't purchase any extra fans so all I had to work with were the two fans that came with my case. I have two intakes and no exhausts (I removed the PCIe covers and left certain place unblocked to let the air flow out from pressure).
I don't really like calling my setup positive pressure since it's more of positive flow. I'm trying to use that concentration gradient of molecules in air to push them out of the back of the case. I try to remove anything that will restrict airflow (ex. expansion slot covers, etc.) to let it leave the case freely.
That hex mesh I still have isn't helping though, but I don't want to cut it out of the case.
There's a decent benefit.
