Hi, I have ran into an issue with my UPS, it makes 1 loud beep when i am playing games, such as (BF4,Infestation:Survivor Stories) But when I Alt-Tab out, the beeping is gone... I have no clue what to do. Any help would be great, thanks guys. And by the way my UPS is a Cyber Power 425VA. My temps get to around 65-70 C on my CPU. And GPU gets to about 65C

i7 3770k @ 4.2GHz
GTX 670
8GB G.skill RAM (2x 4GB)
Corsair 700w Gaming Series

The temperature for the GPU is good.
The temp for the CPU is a touch higher than mine, but no problem. Might want to increase airflow in the case.

Yes, use a regular surge suppressor unless you get a higher capacity UPS
From the Cyber Power website, I see that the 435va model is rated for 230watts.
I'm pretty sure that when your video card is under full load (gaming) your system is drawing at least that amount of power from the unit, causing its alarms to sound.
