Hi guys,
Would just like to say I love this forum and have been a lurker in the shadows for years. Usually I always find an answer here without posting, but I am stumped on this issue and very confused. I have a gaming rig that I would like to surge protect the power and ethernet........but I seem to be having difficulty finding one that will not kill my Internet speed. I was very interested with Tripplite, but I chatted with them through text, and was told they do not make a Power and Ethernet Surge protector that would allow my close to 30mbps not to be cut in half. I was told by tripplite they only support up to 10mbps???? I thought this was wrong, but i cant seem to find something better. Also Tripplite, according to many reviews, honors the warranty and will replace the equipment that was damaged. This was a big plus for me. So let me ask you, what would you guys recommend.
My specs.
Intel Core 15-4690 3.5 GHz 6MB
Gigabyte z97-SLI ATX
600 Watts - EVGA 600b 80 PLUS BRONZE
Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 4 GB GDDR5 PCIe 3.0 x16
Adata 8GBDDR3/2133MHz xpg v3
ASUS VG248QE 24" Full HD 1920x1080 TN 144Hz 1ms
256GB sandisk ssd
1tb sata hard drive
I will also add that I have had a computer hooked up in the same place for 10 years and VERY rarely have issues with loss of power or brownouts. I have always used a surge protector, but would like to upgrade to one that can protect both power and Ethernet with a company that actually takes the warranty serious. Please help. As for a UPS, not sure I cant spend that much, due to the build. Any help would be much appreciated.
Also not as tech savvy as I used to be, so if this is a simple question, sorry for my ignorance.
