UPS for Gaming PC with 1000W PSU

[XAKEP]

Quick one guys. Few days back I had REALLY bad electrical problem in the building lights were flickering for good 5 mins but because of the Raid (WoW) I couldn't just shut everything down and ..well electricity did that for me, at one point everything just blinked and PC turned off. I don't want to experience that anymore. So I am looking for PSU that will give me 1 Minute .. to shut everything down I don't need no time or anything but what I do need PSU strong enough to handle my computer. According to KILL-A-WATT I am getting maximum of 650 Watt when playing and GPU is blasting. So I need something that will keep my PC up while flickering business is going off and give me 1 minute to shut everything down if lights indeed just die on me. Do you have anyting in mind that is NOT super crazy money wise. I'll need minimum of 2 outlets that battery connected but I'll prefer 4 2 for PC and monitor and 2 more for Router and Modem.

PSU I AM using is Antec Quattro-1000 but peack pwer usage is 650 on burn in test , during game play is no more than 600.

Thank you very much.

P.S.

I'd prefer one that connects to computer and report all stats on power line , battery, quality, ground etc etc. I have that on old 250W outlet with USB but I am just saying I'll need that as well.

Something like this should do the job - http://www.mwave.com.au/product/eaton-ellipse-eco-1600va1000w-standy-ups-with-surge-protection-el1600usbiecau-ab58420?gclid=CjwKEAiA5qOlBRDAn8K5qen65joSJADRvlbqcWVobZeH13d353Ovgyza4s5OHyA8agIiVvQS9UTSaRoCMZTw_wcB#detailTabs=tabSpecifications

Should give you a few minutes - dunno what you're version of Cheap is, but AUD250 for this is pretty reasonable

I don't think that will work in the USA. Shouldn't the input voltage be 120 V?

Thank you for your answer. Indeed 249 is resonable for good unit. Would you please look at this one it's rated 700w and its 200$ after shipping.

Yes you're right, not available in the USA with your American inferior 120V mains Power just jokes!!

It's cool, hardware is cheaper over here. We have Newegg. 120 Volts 220 Volts whatever one is less deadly.

Yeah, that one will work - should give you 3-4min approx. if you're pulling 600W or so. Don't forget your screen, router/modem and any other peripherals will pull some Wattage as well, you can't just base it on your PSU loaded Wattage, so ensure that's factored in - after all, you need to see what you're doing in order to shut down safely so you need at least one screen plugged into the powered sockets

For example, I have 2 x Samsung S24D300's at work, they draw 20W each (good example because they're right in front of me)

Make sure the PSU sockets match the Adapters you use - my Samsung's I mentioned for example, only have AC Mains sockets to the power pack and and no IEC connectors - so wouldn't work anyway on that EATON I showed you. Important to check

Yeah I have an KILL-A-WATT unit on outlet and my current crappy 250W UPS and all hardware connected to it. So with everything running I am getting MAX of 650 (peak) and 600 heavy gaming according to my reader.
