Intel q9450
4 2gigs ocx reaper 1066
Asus dvd rom
asus dvd rewriter
2 xfx gtx 260xxx
4 120 mm cooler master fans

22" LG monitor - soon to be samsung t260 26"

You should only plug the pc & monitor in the battery-backup outlets. Some ups have only backup outlets. Mine does. I plug the other things in a regular surge suppressor hooked up to a separate wall outlet.

Here's mine:

The Bulldog software does everything a UPS needs to do. Automated shutdown, cancelling a shutdown, scheduling tests, etc.

The Bulldog is binary and takes up about 4MB ram. Belkin has cheaper and less powerful UPS's, but their software is Java-based = memory hogger.

You don't have to buy the same thing. 500W or less is ok for safe shutdown. Stick to APC (best) & Belkin (good).

I understand avr/ups and was looking at APc and a cyberpower at 1500va or 900 watts. I was looking for suggestions on brands and what others think my system needs. I want to clean the power and that is why I want an AVR. In the past i have always used APC but cyberpower have been getting great reviews.
