Hey there I am currently looking for a good UPS for my PC. (Sorry! Not sure if this is the correct thread. I can't find the UPS section)
I am running my pc on these specs:

Ryzen 5 2600

MSI Mortar Max B450
Sapphire Nitro+ rx580 8GB
T-Force Vulcan Z 16GB Dual
SP - 512gb Nvm.e
Seagate Barracuda - 1TB

FSP Hydro GE 650w Gold 80+

These are the available brands that fits my budget (I checked the UPS calculator and they estimated that I need 800VA)

1. Prolink 850va UPS, pn: PRO851SFCU

2. Eaton 5V 850va | 480w, UPS, pn: 9C00-53239N
3. AWP WISE (AID1000) 1000VA / 600W UPS
*We have an available APC but its to expensive
APC Back UPS, BV1000I-MS, 1000va | 600w, UPS, AVR, 4 outlet
APC Back UPS ES, BX1100Li-MS, 1100va | 550w, UPS, AVR, 4+2 outlet+reverse, reset circuit breaker



Thanks!
 
Solution
I just read on a thread tho that Eaton does not work well with FSP PSU (since the eaton is stepped sine-wave) and FSP works well with pure sine wave

That's a very blanket statement. Really old FSP PSUs.... like from 10+ years ago. Sure.

Pure sine is going to cost an arm and a leg by comparison.
I would stick to APC and Cyberpower. Try checking out these alternatives. It may work for you.

Purchasing here in North America?
CyberPower CP1000AVRLCD 1000VA/600W or
APC UPS, 850VA UPS

If Asia, Look into Lazada - APC BV800I-MS 800VA/450Watts

I'm guessing Phillipines.

Thanks for the info! Just wanted to ask, would you happen to know the difference between the two?

APC BV1000I-MS, 1000va v APC BX1100Li-MS

APC BV1000I-MS, 1000va v APC BX1100Li-MS

Models differ per region. I haven't seen the BX1100LI-MS in North America. But at a glance this model has 2 more outlets than the other; has addition 2x IEC.

Specs are similar. APC BV1000I-MS is 600w versus 550w for the former- miniscule.

Probably what the APC BX1100Li-MS has over the other is the replaceable fuse.

Both have 4 standard NEMA input outlets. So you're good whichever you get.

Technology is very direct. Some priced higher at a premium for better QC, availability of parts, and support.

Get the item from a trusted seller that can give you support. To my experience Villman, pc corner, and pc express in Manila to name a few has good service.
