Hello guys,

First of all, forgive me if this is the wrong Section, but I didn't know where else to post a topic concerning Uninterrupted Power Supplies.

These past few days my locality has been experiencing some electrical power interruptions due to a passing tropical storm. They only last a few seconds but I'm worried that it might cause damage to my hardware since mine is overclocked and using an SSD (as I've read in some articles, a sudden loss of power may cause damage to the SSD).

I do have a UPS but the battery has long since expired and it now just functions as a glorified AVR. I need a new one and I have no idea how to shop for one.

Here is the relevant Parts that are connected to my old UPS:
Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster SA300
PSU: Corsair HX620W which is capable of powering the other Components which are:

CPU: Intel 920 D0 OCed to 3.8ghz
Cooler: Corsair H50

Mobo: Foxconn Bloodrage X58 Motherboard

GPU: Palit GTX670 Jetstream Edition

RAM: Patriot Viper 6gb Tri-Channel RAM

SSD: Crucial M500 128GB

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB

Case: Antec 1200 with seven 120mm LED Fans, and one 200mm LED Fan.

Thanks for reading my post. =)
