hey PG.

1. would a 1KVA UPS + 1KVA stabilizer be enough for minimum 5 minutes backup ? (i only need 5 minutes max to save any work and shutdown pc)

2. which brand to get ? (Stabimatic 1KVA UPS for Rs.13,000 + Stabimatic 1KVA Stabilizer for Rs.3,300 - what i'm thinking of getting)

Budget is Rs.18,000-20,000

PSU is Corsair 700W

Specs = E8200 + DG41RQ + CalibreGTX460 + 2GB DDR2 + 3 HDDS

thanks in advance.

post ur system spec, backup time of UPS depends upon the load
specs posted

1KV ups will be enough, but the problem is you'll need high quality UPS like APC... Local ups don't provide the rated power they provide always lower........
APC 1KVA is out of my budget. I'm thinking of getting either Stabimatic or Emerson (been using Emerson 600VA since a few months)

thanks to everyone for the replies.

Go for a used apc 1kva or 1.5kva. I have both in my home. Running perfect since last 8 months. My 1kva runs 46in lcd, 500watt computer plus led monitor. Two energy savers.

Remember if ur psu is 700watt it doesnt mean it will always need 700watt. It could b running around at 400 or 500. Depends on ur system specs

If you are buying a UPS then you don't need a stabilizer. A UPS already has voltage stabilization built in. Its called AVR or automatic voltage regulation.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
