600VA meaning 600 watts (Volt x Amp).

It won't have any power issue, but the lower the rating goes, the shorter time it will work on battery (when powers down).

1. 600VA doesn't equal 600W, which is why UPS have both maximum volt-ampere ratings and maximum watt ratings.

2. Maximum output power rating has nothing to do with how long it will work on battery. Battery capacity has everything to do with how long it will work on battery.

If everything connected to your UPS attempts to draw more than 360W from the UPS, the UPS may trigger its over-power protection and shut down.

As it stands right now, your desktop consumes far less than 100W under load.
