I am in the market for an ups  that can handle inrush current so that my mcb won't trip when i first turn on my psu. My mcb is  6 A with type C cable on a 230 volt circuit. According  to pcpartpicker, my pc consumes 625 watt. However  I am planning to buy  a 3080ti and a wacom cintiq in the future.That's why  i am looking at 850 watt -1000 watt psu. Please  recommend me the best psu for my particular purpose.

Hp gk520 has  lightning zones and  and really good for typing.

I believe redbubble is governed by EU or American laws 

If you are worried about getting kicked out, I think  you should  read redbubble's policy on   dealing  with copyright violations.

Some pointers

-Does redbubble issue a permanent ban  after a grave violation.

-Does redbubble have a   three strikes policy

-Does  it has   a strike removal policy  similar to youtube.

Personally i dont think it's stupid because people can accidentally cause fire.

I highly doubt that  a website/ software that  can do such verification would be free.  I think  reading about  your  country's copyright  law  will be a good idea.

When a power supply is first switched on (at the wall or the switch on the PSU) the primary cap(s) will charge. This will cause a brief spike in current known as inrush current. Generally speaking higher wattage power supplies will have higher inrush current as they have larger caps. This power spike can in some cases be enough to trip the breaker, especially if there are other devices running off the same circuit. Most power supplies will feature a NTC thermistor which adds resistance and limits the current spike.

 

That is correct. It will only draw what it needs to power the system, minus anything lost due to efficiency loses. For example a 1000w power supply (90% efficient) with a system that is drawing 200w would draw 222w from the wall.

I found that My circuit breaker is only  6 amp.  230volt 5(60) a,  50 hz.

 I have done  a mini research on tom's hardware and techpowerup and found that  750w 850  w psus from seasonic and corsair have high inrush current  on 230 volt. They have  inrush current  that are  between 61-75 amp on 230 volt. 

Will my circuit breaker trip?

Only time the PSU will draw more than what the system requires is when it "fills" its bulk caps. 

 

Which is a very short moment of high amperage load, you are unlikely to run into that as an issues. Tho you probanly dont need more than a 650w or 750w PSU at the higher end of guesstimates. 

When does psu usually fill its bulk caps?  What triggers  moment of high ampere load. 

Be quiet straight power 11 platinum 750 watt draws the same amount of ac input as  the 850 watt version.

What cpu and gpu are you using ? 

Ryzen 9 3950 x( already bought) and  probably msi gaming x trio.   Msi listed x trio power consumption at 260 watt although   pcpartpicker listed 300 watt.  I am planning to  upgrade to 3080ti next year,  so  my  gpu's power consumption will probably be around   300-350 watt.

Hard to say without knowing the parts. Why does the electric meter do only 900W? Looking at the be quiet Straight Power 11 Platinum 850W, it draws 10A on 100V so that's 1000W, 5A on 240V = 1200W. So if you use them even at 90% load, the meter would be at it's limits.

After a  check, turns out it's 1300 watt.  My apartement uses 230 v, 5(60) a, 50 hz. I assume it was  900 watt because my breaker always tripped when my cooker and old air conditioner were  on at the same time. 

Can a  1000/1200 watt psu be used when  electric  meter  can only 900 watt? As fas I know, psu only draw power  as much as  the computer needs

I do hope so

Thanks  for the replies,  I will test the rams,  hopefully the are not damaged. Here is the pic

I ordered a  4 modules corsair vengeance pro rgb from amazon, and  it arrived  in a damaged box.   is there still any hope for my ram?  i know Amazon has   a warranty that cover packages  that arrived in a damaged box, but should i open  the box  ? Will it  void the wmazon warranty?
