So I received a company supplied UPS in order to keep my setup going during rolling blackouts or any loss of power. Firstly I plug it in and there is alot (noticable/audible) coil whine, wondering if this is normal, possibly just the battery charging. Next when it switches over to backup...

Hey, so about a month ago i had a UPS plugged into an extension cord (which i now found out was a wrong move) and i had a console plugged into that UPS. One day, i hear a little bang and i go to check and i see that the console was dead and the extension cord was also dead, but for some reason...

So i bought this UPS 3 years ago i think, was working good and stable. Now idk why it just shutdowns when in my house electricity starts flashing or short circuit and it doesn't protects my PC and monitor.... On this UPS only PC and monitor + modem was connected, before it protected when...

When I first started looking it was just for UPSs since I was just looking for something to get my computer shut down properly and save anything I may need to at times the power goes out. Some time we have to happen frequently in the spring and other years only 2-3 times a year so I guess it's...

Hello currently I'm having an issue figuring out a valid UPS system for my network. I live in South Africa where currently we are experiencing load shedding. Our country can't keep up with demand so we have 2 hour periods everyday where there is no power. So im im need of a solution to power...

Does an UPS with built in AVR (line interactive online ) work better in regulating the voltage than a dedicated AVR? Because they seem to have a lot of features like pure sine waves, online ups and I dont really now if its better than a dedicated avr in the topic. Can someone explain me all of...

Hello, I am about to buy a UPS for my gaming pc. My pc is powered by a 1000w 80 plus titanium PSU. I'm wondering if i have to get the same amount of watts for a UPS? Mind you I just need around 10 minutes to safely shut down my pc incase of a power outage. Here are the full specs of my PC...

my PC's PSU is a Cooler Master MWE 850 v2 (an 850W PSU) but according to PC Part Picker's Wattage Breakdown estimate my PC only draw out 463W (588W if assuming the i9 10850k processor is at PL2 - at all-core boost frequency ) Will the APC BV1000I-MS 1000VA/600W UPS be enough for my PC to...

Hey there, I have these power issues in my area and I'm wondering what UPS should I get for my build. Should I buy 1000va UPS which actually is recommended for my build or should I save my money by using just a 600va UPS. I aim to decide between "Artis 600va" and "Artis 1000va" System info...

So my cyberpower 425w ups doesn't turn on in time when there's a power outage, my pc turns off and after a few seconds the ups kicks in and my pc tries to turn on again. This happened twice this day while I was in apex legends lobby. It worked when my pc was idling and I cut off power to the...

Hello everyone, I would like to know what kind of UPS should I get and what wattage or volts is recommended for my PC. Currently I am running a Ryzen 3 3100, ASRock b450m Steel legend, an Rx 5500 XT and a 650 watt PSU. I am planning on upgrading to a Ryzen 3 3300x soon and go for a RX 5700xt...

I'm looking for a UPS to use for my system, but I need help with all should be powered by it, as well the capacity. These are the components: PC with a Corsair Hx850i power supply (850w) Acer XB273K Sbmiprzx monitor (unsure of wattage, but Google says 43) Seagate Backup Plus Desktop 4TB (unsure...

I recently ordered a CyberPower CST1300AL UPS unit, but after looking into it some more, I'm debating whether I should even use it or sell it for something else. First off, would it increase my power bill? According to what I found, a UPS with around 95% efficiency wouldn't make too much of a...

Have a pretty high end rig, and am paranoid that it may burn out on me. Have had frequent power cuts when the load from appliances in my house has been too much for the circuit breaker, and thus the circuit would be broken and my PC would suddenly boot off. In addition, when I play R6, the PC...

I am looking forward to buy a PC that has a 600W power supply. I have a 500VA, 250W capacity UPS. If the capacity of the UPS is lower than the watts the power supply might use, is it safe to use this UPS, or should I get another one? Of course I don’t plan to game while running the PC on the...

I've tried swapping PSU, ones new and the others old, both seem to have the same problem. The EVGA (The newer PSU) provides a slightly longer play time before it completely shuts down. My temps are all fine. My drivers are all updated and everything is getting electricity. The only thing I can...

I feel kinda stupid for not actually researching this further before jumping on a purchase. I recently had a power outage that lasted no more than two literal seconds. My computer came out fine but my old junky server didn't. It was a PSU failure. Luckily, I had a spare. It was that night I...

From past few months I have started to face a lot of issue with my pc. It all started with my mouse led flickering when there is a power fluctuation. From there it went to issue with UPS No. 1 (further referred as microtek) which I changed to APC but it exhibited more or less the same issue...

Hello, Noticed a weird issue with my brand new APC Back UPS 1100va. When power goes off the PC goes into backup mode without any issue, but once mains power returns the UPS cuts off power for the outlets for a split second and my PC restarts. Why is this happening? Note: This happens only when...

Hi, Unfortunately where I live there are random power cuts that happen on rare occasions and last for a couple of minutes which used to shut my PC down instantly when it happens. I'm a very competitive person, so about 3 months ago I used some of my savings to buy a UPS that is powerful enough...

Hello, I am facing some issue with my UPS and PSU. Need some help here. Case 1: Whenever I do high load tasks like gaming and power cuts off my UPS goes into backup mode but my PC shuts down. Now when I try to power on the PC it doesn't respond which means PSU Protection Circuit was...

I have a Cyberpower 850 PFCLCD backing my PC and monitor. My PC+Monitor draws about 400watts max (and thats with synthetic loads maxing the CPU, RAM, and GPU. Gaming numbers are closer to 320 - checked with killawatt meter since I didn't trust the UPS display). My PSU is the EVGA SuperNova...

I haven't seen anyone discuss where the power supply is best plugged in. Based on some recent replies to my posts, Tom's is a VERY international website. The availability, consistency and quality of electrical service varies greatly around the world. I've been fortunate to always live in an area...

I plugged my CyberPower UPS after not using it for around 6 months. As soon as I plugged it (without turning it on), it buzzed and a little smoke came out so I directly unplugged it. Does this mean it’s dead?

Hello everyone! I just built my computer and now looking for its protection. Preferably a 1000W AVR as I cannot afford UPS (maybe soon) I have 650W True Rated PSU and as of now it’s directed to the wall outlet. My question is, do I need a Servo Type AVR or Relay Type will do? Also, with the...

Hey guys, I just built my PC and it worked fine for a day until it suddenly shuts off unexpectedly and wont turn on. And when I tried unplugging and plugging the plug, suddenly my room light went out. After that it can no longer turn on at all. The very next day, I got it into the repair shop...

Hello, everyone. I'm looking for a UPS that would be able to support my Gaming PC. Running a GTX 1070 and a i7-8700k. Experiencing frequent "brownouts" in my home, which last for maybe two seconds at the most, causing my PC to short out (no, it's not my PSU). I'm hoping this will solve the...

Today it was my first time experiencing power outage while my PC was running. I have a UPS and bought it just for this case but sadly it didn't run as expected. I thought power will come back shortly within 1-2 mins but it took almost 15 mins and I was playing Destiny 2 Crucible so I let my PC...

As far as I can tell I'm probably not posting this in the wrong place. My question is does anyone have experience with HP UPS, IE: HPE T1500VA this model is made by Eaton, and rebranded for HP enterprise. I'm wondering if it will work with a HP Z440 workstation with windows 10 pro. the very...

I wasn't sure if this was the correct place to ask this - but since the power supply has a bearing on the load capacity you pick for your UPS, I figured this was a good place to start. I currently have 3 UPS'. One of them is on my main system, the other 2 currently are not hooked up, but I...

Hello, I recently bought an Eaton 5E UPS. I plugged it and my PC to it and its noise is unbearable in my bedroom. Is it always going to be like that or only during the charging? In case it's always like that and I must replace it, what UPS from this list...

Sadly, my beefy pc from 9 years ago died thanks to an overloaded electrical circuit at my new location. I'm having a dedicated line brought in so that should not be an issue going forward. However, I need a new pc and I want an active or on-line ups to prevent this from happening again. The...
