As the title says, I'm looking into purchasing a UPS on Newegg for my monster rig.
My Computer Components are as follows:
3x 230 mm Fans
5x 140 mm Fans
1x 120 mm Fan
4x 8GB DDR3 RAM
6 Core I7 Sandy Bridge Intel 3800 MHz Turbo CPU LGA 2011
Rampage IV 4 slot PCIE x16 Motherboard
2x NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan X's in SLI
1x NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780
1x SATA 10k RPM 1 Terabyte HDD
1x DVD R/W Drive
Standard Peripherals, WebCam, Wireless Headset, Gaming mouse/keyboard, All USB 3.0
1600 WATT PSU
I Used the Wattage calculator located at this URL, to measure the actual Wattage consumed by my RIG:
http://www.coolermaster.com/power-supply-calculator/
Resulted in approx. 1100
I then input this 1100 WATT into this UPS calculator:
http://www.csgnetwork.com/upssizecalc.html
This suggested a UPS Rating of 1540 VA Minimum, and 2000+ VA Recommended.
Any SuperPower UPS above 1500 VA / 1200 WATT requires a NEMA 5-20R Power Outlet, which isn't standard in common households: NEMA 5-15R
Using any converter for the outlet/power cord is unacceptable. It will drastically increase risks of fire and god knows what else.
Therefore the best UPS I could find that still uses the standard NEMA 5-15R Power Cable/Prongs max out at 1500 VA with a range of 1000-1200 WATT maximum. Will this be sufficient to power my RIG?
