Reddit mentions of CyberPower CP1350PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS System, 1350VA/810W, 10 Outlets, AVR, Mini-Tower,Black

The 1350 VA cyber power is 180 not 80.

That Gigabit Modem/Router Combo looks pretty slick

810W UPS as well : https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00429N19M


The hard part is going to be catching the random stuff that pops up on sale as that's where the good stuff usually is.

The "leaked" stuff that they show early is generally meh.

Check out the newer PFC model. I picked one up about a month ago, no problems. I almost pulled the trigger on the older model but after reading the feedback, I chose this one because it works better with the newer PSUs.

CyberPower CP1350PFCLCD PFC Sinewave. You want a pure sine wave UPS for PSUs with Active PFC or else you risk your PC powering down anyway when the power goes out. The amount of watts you need depends of how much the PSU actually draws from the wall (your total system watts factoring in PSU efficiency) and how long you want the system to stay on for.

It says "simulated sine wave output" so no, not pure. I think this model does though.

What wattage does your computer peak at? Cyberpower PFC Sinewave series is going to be your best bet for something within a reasonable budget.

Here's one with an 810 Watt limit:

Here's the vendor website for further specifications:

If you're operating at a full 810w on that bad boy, you'll have about 3 minutes to get your computer shut down.

This cyberpower seems to be decent. I don't really know much about these though.

Generally speaking, at minimum you're going to want to match or exceed the wattage of your PSU with the wattage of your UPS... something like this would fit the bill. As others have mentioned, APC and Tripp Lite are also reputable manufacturers with similar models. The larger/higher wattage you go, the more battery capacity you will have and the more time it will give you to exit out and shut down in the event of a power failure. Comes down to personal choice and budget :) in the end.

1350VA version aprox. $175 New:

This UPS from Amazon on the main page of the sub is back in stock: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00429N19M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

Great deal IMO.

After doing some research I just said fuck it got one of these : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00429N19M?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s01

You could pick up this UPS if you wanted alternatively as well. The other UPS is rated at 600W output, that one is rated at 800W output. Even though its a 750w PSU, really your system shouldn't be pulling anywhere near that from the wall under normal use outside maxing out the GPU and CPU at the same time.

For example I have 2 computers running off my 900W UPS and with one pulling 100-150w at idle and the other one running both of my overclocked 1080s at max with the 140w base TDP CPU thats overclocked and pulls over 200w by itself at max at a gaming load the total draw from both of those computers typically doesn't exceed 800w from the wall on the UPS. So 600w SHOULD be fine for the UPS, but you could get the 800w one if you felt like having some overhead.

Well, define "cleaned"? I have this UPS which makes some claims about cleaning up the line a bit.

Have you tested your system to make sure you didn't fry anything? If a PSU suffers a violent ESD, it can smoke your motherboard, CPU, RAM, GPU, and SSDs, so you should test them all pretty thoroughly.

In the future, ALWAYS have a good surge protector or UPS. A good quality surge protector like the CyberPower CSP706T is a mere $25. Even a good quality UPS like the CyberPower CP1350PFCLCD is only $200.

> 2tb of hdd and a 64 gb ssd,

Look again; that's 3 64GB SSDs.

You're also forgetting the $150 UPS, almost $100 in fans alone (2 of these and two of these), an $80 OS, a $100 printer, and $150 in peripherals. He probably spent almost $700 on just the stuff you didn't mention.

That's not accounting for sales or anything, and obviously the price will go down since it's used, but this guy clearly spent a lot more than $700 on this thing as recently as about a year ago (the first 7950s were available in early 2012). I'm inclined to be more than a little skeptical of this; it seems like too good a deal, and I can't figure out why the guy (who clearly knows what this stuff is worth) would suddenly decide to sell it so quickly and for so much less than it's worth (especially when he was adding a $300-$400 video card to it just in the past 12 months).

I bought this one for my PC. This should be fine, right?

> Has it saved you?

All the freaking time. I use one for my personal server, home desktop, as well as probably 50 or so computers and servers over about a dozen offices in a professional setting. For us, they are absolute must haves.

> Do you only hook up your PC to your UPS and not other things?

I have my PC and home server plugged into one. Then networking equipment and a monitor plugged into another cheaper smaller one, so that my internet stays on and I can see what I'm doing to save and shut down. If I'm not around, the UPS sends shutdown commands automatically after a couple minutes.

> What should I look out for when I purchase one?

That it can support your load, and for a modern computer, you'll want one that is pure sinewave, not stepped. The cheaper stepped units should be fine for peripherals, networking equipment, and monitors though.

For your system, I would not recommend the one you picked. It's likely too small. PCPP says you pull 464W, but if you're overclocked at all (and remember GPUBoost is a thing so it'll auto-overclock), you're power draw will go up a good bit. Plus you have to account for the inefficiency of your PSU too, which can add a good 15-20% on top of that. You'd probably want to go with a 750W capable unit minimum.

It also isn't pure sinewave, and since your PSU has active PFC tech in it, that may cause some issues ranging from simply not working, to being extremely inefficient.

I'd recommend this instead to combat both those problems: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00429N19M/

Or if you want a longer runtime, they make a 1500VA version too.

I will note, that the prices on amazon right now are pretty much the highest they've ever been according to Camelcamelcamel, the unit I linked more regularly goes for around $160, and I frequently see them go on sale between $130-$150.

1350VA unit is still on sale it seems

I believe the CP1350PFCLCD is pure sine wave also, looking at this link:

https://www.amazon.com/CyberPower-CP1350PFCLCD-Sinewave-Compatible-Mini-Tower/dp/B00429N19M

That's probably why it says it works with PFC power supplies. As far as I know, people have had decent results with many adaptive UPS units and their PSUs, but they aren't technically supported (could be wrong on this).

I was going to mention this too. OP, if you ever end up using a PFC PSU you'll need sine wave power or you'll have problems. I run my workstation and NAS off the 1500VA version of this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00429N19M/ref=twister_B007UL3ZEK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I've been extremely happy with cyberpower. The price/performance on these things is spectacular.

Something like this wouldn’t be enough to keep the lights going and a clip on fan or two safely?
