Sometimes I wonder if there's much logic behind it but there probably isn't. Japan drives on the left and half of the country stands on the...

CWT is the manufacturer, this looks like a CWT PUQ-B aka Corsair CX750. Very solid unit especially at this price.

Cielescha replied to Nalar on Why Do Most People Drive at The Speed Limit in Wet Conditions?
From my experience it's more like +40-50km/h. Freeways are sometimes set at 80km/h but no one goes at that speed, including police.

4x2x50A is a bit stronger than 5x2x(1+2). The ATX Steel Legend is of course better than both, comparable to B550 Aorus Pro.
