I will be running a Corsair TX650 PSU with a light load of an intel corei5 4440 3.1 GHz processor, an Asus Z87-A (motherboard, a MSI Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 video card, 8 GB (2x4 GB) RAM, a Toshiba 120GB SSD, a WD Caviar Black 1TB 7200 RPM hard drive, with 4 additional case fans. According to calculators this is a 450 watt power draw.
I also have an LED monitor drawing 130 VA.
This means I have a 580W draw according to calculators, but it is a 650 Watt PSU and a 100 Watt monitor. If I can get away with a 600 W UPS it will save me a bit of cash. I only need a few minutes of backup for shutdown if power goes out.
What is the mimimum safe UPS Battery Backup rating I should purchase?
