Power strip LAN party

[jojocool111]

Hey LTT Forum!!

I m gonna host a lan party and everyone is bringing their desktops.

i will use my ITX pc (corsair rm650, r9 290 i5 4670k) and a monitor i have lying around.

Now my question is: can i use a power strip for my pc and my monitor and possibly another pc and monitor on the same power strip and what would happen if it would overload?

Thanks

You could but just be contious of the power draw.

Normal european socket with normal european power strip can theoretically handle 3600W which is a ton. so even if it can handle less you should still be fine with two systems.

...I've been running my entire desk setup (max 700w + UPS) from one UK socket for years. Never any problems apart from when there was a power cut.

It should be fine.
