Hi, I`m looking for a UPS or inverter for my coming soon workstation Rigging a X99 setup will be using 850 psu (Corsair or Seasonic).

Really confused to go for a UPS or a Inverter. Is it safe using a Inverter only without UPS ? below are the rates i got


1) A Shop quoted me for a Pure sine wave inverter(1500va) for Rs 20,000 One hour backup time , but like all inverters it does not come with surge protection.
Is it safe to use inverter only without UPS ?

2) Numeric Digital LI 2KVA (1400watt) UPS with internal 7AH*4nos Battery @ 14700/ . 30 mins backup time


Thanks

Hey there julesbgoes, am following this thread for an answer. I am not quite sure of this myself as I have ordered a seasonic x-650 myself and waiting to confirm if i need a sine ups or not. I have read in some forums that sine wave UPS is best for seasonic psus with active pfc. Not completely sure. Please confirm with other sources, wish I could help you more.
