PC specs-

Processor : AMD FX 8350 AMD FX

Graphic card : Sapphire AMD/ATI Radeon Dual-X R9 270X with Boost OC 2 GB 2 GB DDR5

Motherboard : MSI 970A-G43

PSU : Corsair VS650 650 Watt PSU

8 GB : DD3 Ram

1 Hard drive : 560 gb ATA seagate

I connect the CPU with my HDMI supported TV so it acts as my monitor but i dont want to connect it with the UPS as it will require more power.



I was told i'd require a 1 KVA UPS to handle this system... so would 1 KVA UPS will be sufficient to deliver atleast 10 to 15 mins of back for this pc during power failure?

Power cut here isnt for too long, max 5 mins...

ps- As i already had two UPS from V guard (140 V - 300 VAC 50 hz Input & 230 VAC output 10 -+)

Intex with 320 W output

Please help :(

You'll need to check the stats on the UPS's you're looking at.
You're probably going to need a UPS with 350-400w of continous output (much more if you've overclocked anything) and then examine the UPS runtime charts for how long it will run at that load. Be warned 15 minutes is a long time for a consumer UPS so its going to be expensive. Their main purpose is to give you time to see if the power returns quickly otherwise they give you time to shut down.
