Hello! I recently finished planning out my first PC build, and have already ordered the parts. In the meantime, I found myself looking at my really old and ugly surge protector. I don't want to plug my brand new expensive PC to that thing, right?
So now, after looking at other, newer models, I am rather confused. I bought a 450w power supply, which I think should be enough, and am not sure if that has to do with which surge protector I should buy. I have looked at other threads regarding the topic, but the speech most of the replies use is extremely technical and detailed, and with english not being my native language it is rather hard for me to understand what they're trying to explain.
With this in mind, can anyone help me out and explain if I should look out for a specific kind of surge protector, or if I'm fine with whichever one I choose? Thanks in advance!
