Switchblade88 on Why Do People Stand on Escalators and Hold up Others Instead of keeping to the side?

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…

divvydan on Asus 750W TUF Gaming 80+ Bronze Power Supply $69 (Was $119) + Delivery @ Umart

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

CWT is the manufacturer, Asus is only for branding and distribution.

Nomad2233 on NZXT C Series 750W 80+ Gold Power Supply $139, 650W 80+ Gold Power Supply $129 Delivered @ BPC Tech

To make it simple: Corsair RMX > NZXT C > Corsair RM

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.

Umart is listing a lot of incorrect information. The model that is offered for sale is NOT modular and does not have Japanese capacitors.…

Kingston A2000 easily, TLC, better DRAM and much longer longevity.

Yes it's fine, 1050 Ti can run on 350W PSUs.

Cielescha posted a deal Seasonic CORE Series GM 500W 80+ Gold Semi-Modular Power Supply $119 + Delivery @ Mwave
Good price on a higher-end semi-modular PSU with 7-year warranty. 12V rail is rated for 492W, suitable for 5700 XT or 2070 Super builds.

koflok on ASRock B550M Steel Legend Motherboard $219 + Delivery @ Shopping Express

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