Online UPS or Line Interactive UPS

Hey guys,

 

I need a recommendation whether to buy an Online UPS or line interactive UPS for following system. 

 

i5 3450 processor

8GB RAM

3 Hard drives

1 DVD drive and 1 Blu ray drive

R9 290x GPU

900W inwin glacier PSU

3 AOC 23 inch monitors (much appreciated if all three can be connected)

 

My current UPS (line interactive, 1000VA) is overloading when there is power failure while gaming. There are also occasional voltage spikes. I have an idea about buying Prolink PRO 901, but is it worth buying??

That system should not draw that much voltage at most 500W. Your UPS should be fine unless you r batteries are dying. With the assumption you have a bad power factor of 0.6 it should still be able to supply 600W.
