It is an Ok product and it's a good power back up, but it's not good for high end gaming systems.
I got it as a power back up for my computer which is a higher end system (Intel i9, 64GB RAM, NVidia GeForce RTX3080 24GB DDR, etc.. In normal web browsing and other apps, no issues.
But when I started to play the Microsoft Flight Simulator right away I start hearing this long beep. I look at my APC and see the power button is yellow. I push it and it goes away for a second then back to beeping. As soon as I get out of MSFS. The beep stops.
So, I start up MSFS again and get beeping. After looking up information, I tried installing the PowerChute software, but it gave an error while installing because it could not find the APC. So I just unplugged my PC from the APC and connected it to a dumb surge protector. It believe this UPS is better as a back up for personal or office computers. So there is no use for us PC gamers. I wish APC will do a better way describing their products and matching them to the customer needs in plain English, versus electrical requirements.
