Looking for a UPC. Don't know how much power I need. Have 2 computers, one with a 500W PS and the other with a 400W PS. They might be overkill for my system. Based on the PS total I might need a UPS that supplys 1000W of power but they are expensive. With the right UPC, can I run 2 PC's from one UPC or would it be best for each computer to have it's own UPC. Guess I should look up the power consumption fo each component and add 10% for a good estimate. Any thoughts?
