It's fairly cheap but I'm not so sure about the quality.

I really wanted the APC but it's over my budget for now.

My system is;

A6-5400k
FM2 A55m E33
4gb ram
500gb HDD
R7 260x
VS450w
23" IPS
4pcs Sickle Flows
1 strip bitfenix leds
"Generic" 500w AVR. I think the brand is Delkin. I call it generic since it's a cheapo and weights like a paper.


2-3 weeks from now, I'm upgrading to an i5 4440 + B85 with another 4gig stick and 1tb HDD.

Do you think this UPS is good for that setup?

Thanks!

I have no idea about this brand as this brand sounds new. I think if you are purchasing UPS and investing money you should invest on some big brands as there will be some reliability and they can give you service also if it gets faulty anytime. One more think don't take risk with your system as UPS will be directly connected to your expensive system.

What are you trying to protect against? Does your power fluctuate in voltage but only have 1 min. outages? If that is the case that UPS is probably OK. If you are trying to protect against anything longer than 1 - 2 min outages you need more than that.

Hi Kane,

I'm trying to protect my system from random power fluctuations and outages. Usually happens when it's raining cats and dogs which happens well, almost weekly.

I'm really thinking about the APC, but I will get back to you with further clarifications.
