Hello.

Could anyone be able to recommend a UPS for my PC?

My rig specs are as below(all plugged to the single UPS) :

- i7-4770
- Gigabyte MoBo (B85 something I think)
- Asus Strix GTX 970 4GB
- 16GB RAM (8*2)
- one DVD Combo drive
- 240GB SSD
- 1TB HDD
- Corsair VS650 watt PSU

- Razer Deatadder mouse / Blackwidow keyboard
- D-Link Modem/Router
- JBL Jembe speakers
- LG IPS LED 21.5" monitor

I'm currently using APC VA600 UPS but this little thing beeps warning sounds when playing certain games.

I suppose I need to change my UPS because the wattage is not enough, but just can't figure out which one to get.

I have narrowed down to two options : APC 1000VA or 1500VA

will the former be enough for some heavy 3D gaming or should I get the latter?

Please help!
