Hi all,
I'm purchasing a UPS for my gaming PC system. I know there are a number of calculators out there for finding the right UPS battery, but I'm not sure for how to account for the numerous gaming peripherals (mostly Saitek flight sim components) I have plugged into my PC. I'm only looking to have 5-10 minutes of battery time at most so I can properly shut down my PC if the power went out.
I've read in a few places to calculate the input power for my power supply and any other equipment plugged into the wall. I've been checking out the specs page for the power supply I am using (Corsair Professional 750W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply (CMPSU-750HX)) and I didn't see input or anything similar. I also checked the TigerDirect page which did mention something about input:
AC INPUT
100V/240V - 60/50Hz
But I'm not sure if this is what I should be looking at?
The only other external equipment I have would be my speakers (Logitech Z623 200W 2.1ch Speakers (980-000402)) which I didn't see a similar input for either??
As always, I sincerely appreciate your help!!
