Will This UPS Be Enough or Too Much?

reikozunaken · 13-06-2009, 09:34 PM

I am considering buying a CyberPower Intelligent LCD Series GreenPower UPS (Newegg.com - CyberPower Intelligent LCD Series GreenPower UPS CP1500AVRLCD 1500VA 900W 8 Outlets UPS - UPS) with the following statistics:

VA Rating: 1500VA
Watts: 900W
Output Voltage: 120Vac +/- 5%

I want to connect the following devices to the UPS and I would like to know if the UPS is not good enough, too good, or just right. I am not well versed in electronics, so I want to ask.

1.
Computer with AMD Phenom II 3.0GHz and ATI Radeon HD 9850
Corsair TX750W PSU
90-264V ~ 9A 50/60Hz
2.
ASUS VW246H Black 24" LCD
100 - 240 VAC, 50/60Hz
Consumption: <60W
3.
Viewsonic VX1940w
AC 100-240V, 50-60Hz
Consumption: 44W
4.
Logitech Z-5500 Digital
Total FTC power: 505 watts RMS
Sub-woofer: 188 watts RMS
Left/Right: 62 watts RMS x 2
Center: 69 watts RMS
Rear Left & Right: 62 watts RMS x 2

The fourth item is optional if it is too much. I may also plug in small things like my switch since there are 8 outlets if the UPS can support that much. The purpose of the UPS is to keep my PC on when we have miniature power outages (2 seconds or so), which are frequent enough to make the purchase worth it. Please advise whether my intended equipment is adequately backed by this unit.

well it will do fine, but gaming, or listening to music is going to make that battery go by like mad, ups's are just for you can save things and shut down the computer safely.

Well, like I said, it's mainly for those split second outages we get sometimes that cause my PC to shut off even though power comes back immediately. Gotta love the power company.

Thanks for your input.
