Uninterruptable Power Supply?

If i have 1200W power supply do i need a 1200W UPS?

If i get a 500 or 360W power supply for this system and say im using 900W, what happens if the power goes out? Will my computer shut down or get damaged or will it reduce power to run at 500 or 360W?

Also what UPS do you recommend for a 1200W system?

or a 600W system?

    that's a assured surge protector with a battery lower back up which will shelter your laptop (CPU, mouse, computer screen, keyboard, classes, etc...) from crashing in case of a capacity surge like a lights hurricane. I even have united statesand surge secure practices with HP for $40 9.ninety 9/3 hundred and sixty 5 days and that's particularly well worth it. till now to buying this service, I basically had an electric surge protector related to my laptop, yet an electric capacity hurricane surged through the electrical powered protector and crashed my laptop, then I had to reconfigure my no longer easypersistent and start up over lower back like if I had basically offered the laptop at once from the production unit. With the recent UPS, the final time I had a lightning hurricane, i became making use of my laptop and a message got here on my show screen that reported "you have 10 minutes to close down your laptop till now you unfastened any classes". As you should comprehend, you should on no account leave your laptop on once you would be away and an electric hurricane is in the forecast via fact then you definately heavily isn't homestead to close it down till now it surges!

    The UPS needs to be the same wattage, as the device connected to it.
