[m2234323]

What is a good ups to buy for my pc it is about 550 watts 

amd how to decide if I should get one it would be my first desktop computer I only have laptop before 

[themctipers]

Its called a "PSU" for future refrence.

 

Ask for a build here. The first question should be "What is my primary usage for this machine" and "What is my budget"

u noob.

OP: Just look around on Amazon and check the item descriptions to find one that is capable of delivering enough wattage, I'd expect to pay around $100

it is hard to decide if I should get one or upgrade the gpu or cpu in the computer

[catzambia]

Well, do you need to upgrade your CPU or GPU? And if you do, what is more important to you, more performance in games or knowing that you will not have the power cut from your pc while gaming or working?

Is your system going to be running mission critical tasks?

Do you have frequent brownouts in your area?

 

For most people UPS's are not needed. I do get 2-3 power cuts a year and 1-2 brownouts a month, and if my systems shut down unexpectedly I can lose up to 12 hours of work, which is why all of my systems are on backup power.

Your Lucky if you live in my country  you'll have like 10-20 power cuts per day

If power was that unreliable then I would generate my own.

What are your specific components we can get a better idea of what you will require and as for needing a UPS itself if you experience a lot of power outages or brown out where the voltage fluctuate a lot then it would be a good option.

Your system wouldn't use more than ~375W so something like this would work even with peripherals and networking equipment.
