I have a troubles with power in my country that always cut in an unexpected times which is much irritating, it is a nightmare so I am searching for a power effecient way to turn on my pc for 4 to 5 hours.

 

I decided to put 200 Amp 12 V lequid acid battery which will give me enough power to turn on my PC.

 

I have a power effecient PC which contains only one GTX 1060 GPU with no cooling systems in a very normal case so 200 Amps battery can deliver enough power to my pc for the required time

 

Now I need AC-DC power supply that can give 400-500W because I dont want to use dc to ac adapter with the battery then put it again into my current ac to dc power supply which is un efficient way.

 

The PSU should be capable of taking power from 2 sources AC and DC with higher priority to AC input, so if i lost power again the PSU will switch automatically to DC input so I can keep working without shutting down PC.

 

If there is no such a power supply do this things then I need help getting the right components for this matter that can aid the PSU for this.

 

I have currently UPS that can last for 5 minutes and this is not enough to keep streaming without troubles if the power cut so I really need ideas and help, it will be much apperciated

Well, then what is the best idea to turn on my pc on battery in effiecient way.

 

I am thinking about using the 200 amps battery inside my UPS untill i finish my current session then turn the PC off and change my AC input PSU to another DC input PSU for more power efficiency, would it be a good idea?

 

Is using a DC PSU recommended for gaming PC?, will it pass the whole battery power through PC and make my pc low efficient or it will limit the output wattage passed through PC to a proper amount?
