Hello all. Life has recently forced me to move back in with my parents after quite a few years . The only place they have for me is in the basement. Aside from the pain of being the living cliche at my age, I also have the misfortune of needing to put my computer in the same room and electrical circuit as an air conditioner, mini-fridge, and large freezer.
I haven't done the math on the voltage yet, but I feel I have a grasp on that (even though, admittedly, I am a novice at things like this, so feel free to pre-emptively warn me about this area too, if anything stands out).
What I am worried about (because having bad things on the same circuit on my pc has caused damage to several components before - different house though) is if the appliances and their constant sporadic activation might wreck havoc with my power supply?
My power supply is the newest part of my machine (the last one conked out on me 4 months ago, but it was flimsy and came with the case), and this time I didn't skimp on it. Still, I'd hate to risk it. Perhaps a UPS is in order?
Thanks.
