Question What UPS i need to get for a 1050W PSU and i have Inverter with capacity 1500W

[manoj327]

Hi
Pls suggest me a UPS for PSU of 1050W and i have Inverter connected to the line -1500W.?

My PC config:
Processor : R7 3700X
Mobo : Asus Tuf X570
Ram : 32GB DDR 4 3200MHZ corsair
GPU : Zotac RTX 4090 AMP Extreme edition
PSU : Coolermaster MWE 1050W 12VHRT

Gpu takes a lot of power
When i use 1500VA ups, dose it work with Inverter of same capacity?

Not a simple question or answer unfortunately.

I am unclear what you mean you have inverter connected to the line. A inverter is kinda like a UPS to begin with.

So first you need to determine how much power you really use. If for example you only use 500 watts even though you have a 1050w power supply you might buy a UPS that is too big.

Next is how long do you expect to run it on the battery. Many UPS are only rated for a few minutes but you can get ones with more battery inside.

You have to be careful a lot of UPS use the VA number which is similar to watts but they mostly use it because the VA number tends to be bigger but you need to use the watts number to select which unit you buy.

So in general you will find that most 1500VA units can run 1000watts. That is a very common UPS to find. The cheaper ones tend to only have a single battery where more expensive ones can have more. Read the specs on the replacement batteries is the best way to figure out which is better. You will see most batteries at 12 volts at some number of miliamp hours. The total ma hours for all the batteries is what mostly determines how long it will run.

One other key thing is you really want true sine wave UPS when you are connecting a computer to it. Modern power supplies because they have used tricks to get high efficiency require very clean power. Some will turn off if they are connected to square wave UPS.

That is a very interesting device. That is not normally what I see called a "inverter". It actually seems to really be a UPS.
Generally the term inverter means a device that converts DC to AC it generally does not also charge the batteries or switch from city power to battery. Most inverters are stupid devices that just convert the DC to AC and nothing else.

Now if this is not some scam and all the specs are true this will work great. With a couple large external batteries you could likely power your computer for hours. It is inconsistent in the VA rating some say 1700 and other 1500 but the watt rating is over 1000 so that is much more important. It also says its is pure sine wave.

This also translates to about $100 US. If this was available in the USA I might buy it just to play with it. It is a fraction the price even if you add the extra cost of batteries of most similar UPS.
