    Hey there.
    I've been having alot of Power cuts nowadays. And I've already lost one HDD, I don't want to loose more.

    Below is my Rig's specs.
    Can anyone help me by telling me WHAT TYPE and WHICH UPS should I go for?

    Specs:
    Gigabyte GA-P35-DS4
    Intel Core2Quad Q6600 2.4GHz
    Kingston DDRII 4GBs
    XFX Nvidia 9800GT GDDR3 512mb
    Cooler Master 600W PSU
    USB Keyboard & Mouse
    3 Internal SATAs (1x 250GBs, 1x 320GBs & 1x 500GBs)
    2x Western Digital MyBooks (x 500GBs & 1x 1TB)
    Cable Modem
    Samsung SyncMaster 733NW 17" LCD
    Creative SBS A200 2.1

    These are the items I would want the UPS to support.

    Really appreciate your help mates! :)

    Well, a 1000VA UPS will give you plenty of time with your machine(almost the same as mine), more than 20 mins with a modem, router and 19" LCD widescreen. APCs are reportedly the best and most expensive. This is the one I have had for the last 5 years and finally need a new battery for, Ultra. Get a smaller one if you don't need all that time and they'll be cheaper too.
