hello guys. recently i bought a mini refrigerator and connected to the same socket as my PC used. the monitor blinked for 1-2 second every time the refrigerator's compressor started. i guess this is due to large power consumption by refrigerator which affected my monitor. as a solution i bought Belkin extension with surge protector. it seemed not help to solve it that much and cost me a huge money. some people suggest me to use automatic voltage regulator because they said it will help to maintain the power and voltage when the compressor start. so i don't know weather to buy it or not because if it still not working, it will be a waste of money. if you guys have any suggestion to solve my problem? share it with me.

 

Specs:

i5 4th Gen

gtx750ti

PSU 750Watt

 

p/s: that the only wall socket i have and use it for both monitor (PC) and refrigerator.

Is it really worth the investment though? Personally I wouldn't think it'll be worth.
