Is APC Back UPS 1400VA BX1400U-MS Good Enough For my Corsair HX750?

[mukhlissaputro]

Hi, I want to buy UPS to cover my PC from bad electric. My PSU is :

Corsair HX750
Motherboard ECS 1150
Processor Intel i5 4460
RAM 8GB DDR3
VGA GTX 1080
4x tb 8 drive

I see many review says that APC is good UPS. And I found APC 1400VA BX1400U-MS. It's simulated sinewave and 700watt capacity.

So, is this UPS will good for my PC? Especially for my PSU HX750? Or must I buy another APC series? In my country only PSU APC, Prolink are available and I think have a good brand.

Thankyou for your help.

The PSU doesn't matter; it's how much power will be drawn by the whole system. That UPS is plenty for that system plus the monitor.

But, the ups is simulated sinewave. I wonder is my psu will working normally with this ups?

It will work normally, but buy a pure sinewave UPS (Smart-UPS) if you're worried. How often do power issues occur at your place?

 

[mukhlissaputro]

Not usually. I just want protect and get long lifespan for my hardware. Any recommendation for smartUPS that support my PC please?

A Smart-UPS 1000 or better meets the requirements, but the additional cost over the Back-UPS is hardly justified; your equipment won't last longer (only the PSU is affected; other components are not). If available where you live, a pure sine wave Cyberpower UPS would be less expensive.
