I live in an area where electricity will cut for a minute 2-3 times a day. I already have my rig hooked up to a voltage regulator, but should I be using a UPS to protect my computer from an unsafe shutdown?
I have an EVGA SuperNOVA NEX650G 650Watt PSU in my PC which is (supposed to be) backed by a Cyberpower CP1000PFCLCD Pure Sinewave UPS. But it still restarts sometimes when AC drops. The thing is, this is my second try with this UPS. I had to RMA the first one because it would randomly reboot my...

Hey all,
I have a 1080ti desktop pc with a 600W psu. I currently have a 1500VA/900W UPS, but when my pc is running a game and the electricity goes, the ups switches off in 5sec. Isn’t a 1500VA/900W ups supposed to be enough?
