All looks fine to me.


We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

Only thing I would suggest is to get a case that has a mesh front rather than a solid one.  I think the case makers are realising this and many more are on the market.  

I have a Corsair case that used to have a glass front with side vents - a bit like the one you've chosen other than glass at the front rather than sheet metal - but couldn't get decent temperatures even at modest loading.  I took the front glass panel out and put some mesh in its place to stop me sticking my fingers in the front fans and immediately got a 15-20 degree drop in CPU temp and around 10 degree drop in GPU.  The Noctua (great choice, by the way) shifts massive amounts of air, but you've got to be able to allow the replenishing cool air in otherwise it will restrict its effectiveness.

Thanks guys, any improvement on the yoke do we think?

Honeycomb is top of the line right now!

I have heard rumours that AMD processors may have trouble with WMR headsets. I'd give you a reference but I don't have time right now. Having said that, I have a Reverb Gen 1 and I absolutely love it. You'll love the Gen 2 no doubt.

Honeycomb is great, but the yoko + is in another league. It is all metal, has such a lovely solid feel too it. Closest to the real thing I have ever experienced
