Hi, I'm looking for a pure sinewave UPS. My current APC chokes with my new system. :)

I'm not sure of my total power draw, but I did get it up to 500 watts. My PS is a Corsair 850 BTW.


These are my main components if that helps.
Budget is... $200-300 Canadian I guess?

X570 AORUS PRO WIFI
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor (Default Auto OC)
Crucial Ballistix RGB 3600 MHz DDR4 32GBx2 CL16 (Default OC)
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti
Asus Strix Sound Card
1 M.2 1TB
Several internal HDD
4 WD My Book portable drives ranging from 2TB to 10TB
1440 Eizo Monitor

I've always used APC, and my current APC still works, it just isn't powerful enough for my new rig.

Thanks!

Not knowing your requirements (power usage) makes it difficult...

Not knowing your requirements (power usage) makes it difficult to recommend something. But, I will suggest you use E-Bay and buy a used commercial UPS. A double conversion 1500VA unit like the APC Smart UPS ONLINE. I have bought several used or surplus units on E-Bay. Put new batteries in them and you are good to go.
