Question about UPS Battery Backups

[mao91]

First of all, if this is in the wrong forum, PLEASE move it. I did my best to approximate where I think it would be appropriate.


I have a Cyberpower 900W 1500VA UPS coming tomorrow, but read somewhere that some PSUs required pure sine wave output. The one I ordered utilizes simulated sine output. My PSU is a Corsair RM750. Will this break my PSU? Should I request an immediate RMA and fork out for pure sine output?

It is best if it's pure sinewave output from the UPS but majority of PSU's can accept simulated sinewave output the ones to stay away from is square wave where most PSU's will just shut down thinking it's receiving bad power.

Just read this nifty bit that helped me out a lot. May have to go pure sine in the future since I'm looking at powering audio equipment as well as computer equipment.
