So I figured it had been a few days since I last bothered everyone ( spent it drooling over new parts and the HAF 932 )
And while sitting there I realized I saw the lights flicker..I dont have UPS. Mind you I have a fairly good surge protector but with the amount of money soaked into my Dragon Juicer ( yes I named it /sigh ) I figured it was time to look into getting some better protection.
Well I have gone over alot of websites and realized I have a PSU that has an active PFC now I read so much im confused lol
Is it true that it is not a good idea to run a PFC active PSU with a Simulated Sine wave UPS ?
If this is the case then what options do i have ?
There are so many different ones and really I am not that much of a gaming freak to need 45 min of battery power on my pc
What I do need is something that can control the way to high/way to low power that happens in this area at times.
And something that could give me even 2 min of time to shut down if I need to.
Thats where the real stinker comes into play. For just needing something so simple what size would i really need ( below is my setup )
If anyone can help out a gal , I would be in your debt !
Thanks in advance
