Im looking at purchasing a new UPS, but im sorta confused about the power capacities listed.
This is the one im looking at APC USP
Now this UPS says it has a max power output of 450 watts, so will it get over loaded if I have a PSU of 420 Wats, a monitor and DSL router/modem running on the battery backup?
Do power supplies always run at there full output? Or only at what is needed to run the components inside the PC?
I dont really want to have a long amount of up time, just enough to get the PC through those few second power outages and if its a longer outage enough time to properly shut everything down. But I dont know if this will have enough power capacity.
