Since everyone here on Expertcore knows about my crappy UPS I don't tell about it anymore
By the way after replacing 2nd battery of its now it seems working a little.
But when I am gaming if power fails, UPS's power isn't enough and my computer restarts. But when doing normal stuff it can keep my computer running until I turn it off.
Here is my system specs,
Samsung S22A350H LED Backlit Monitor
Intel Core 2 Duo E6550
Foxconn G31 MX Series
2x1GB DDR2 667MHz RAM sticks.
Samsung 80GB SATA HDD
Sony DVD Combo
Samsung DVD-RW
Nividia GTX 460
Axle 400W PSU (This is a Genuine PSU which supplies correct wattage not a cheap crappy one which doesn't supply the power stated, I mainly bough this PSU because of my Graphics card which requires 150W at maximum load)
So I think you can understand why my computer turn offs when power fails. Because UPS can't supply that much power.
So I've talked about this our member TRONICLK, and he said me to buy a 1KV one so I won't get any problems.
Since I am going to upgrade my computer really soon I thought to buy a 1KV UPS with those new parts, But since I am on a tight budget I won't be able to get a new UPS.
Anyway here are the new Parts I am going to buy so you can find out their power consumption also.
Intel Core i5 3470
Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H
2x4GB Kingston Hyper-X 1600MHz DDR3 Kit
WD Caviar Blue 1TB 7200RPM SATA 6GBPS
And a good gaming casing (A cheap ) which is Coolermaster Elite 430
And also I'll be using my these existing parts with my new build also
So power consumption will be high because with 2 HDDs and etc..Samsung 80GB SATA HDD
Sony DVD Combo
Samsung DVD-RW
Nividia GTX 460
Axle 400W PSU
So I've decided to add an extra battery to my UPS, My UPS uses 12V 7A batteries so I'll be connecting one of them separately.
Mainly I need to know is,
Is it safe to do so? Will my UPS be blown up?
Will it take more time to charge both?
And will I get the similar backup time like a 1KV UPS ? Even 2mins is OK for me to turn off my computer safely.
I just need to keep my computer without restating while I am gaming when power fails so I can just quit the game and save my new Hard Drive
For that I am not hoping to buy a new UPS also, So will my Hack work?
Thanks
