first off the 560watt PSU will draw above 600watt so it will better to go with 900watt UPS...
but since PSU will not work at 100% Load all the time u can escape with 600watt ones...
be caution though, if it on it's peak load and there a power cut off the UPS will not work as it intended...

the number VA is just how long it will hold up, so buy the biggest u can afford... (at the decided wattage)


edit : btw most UPS already had AVR inside it so not necessary to buy both

Sine wave always better than simulated ones, avoid square wave UPS (But they are very expensive....... :(  )
