i currently looking for an avr with a good performance that will suit my pc's needs.

AVR?

Dan

Automatic Voltage Regulator? Which is built into most of the good UPS setups?

What are your needs?

yes automatic voltage regulator. just for my pc and printer.

does your utility provide a very unstable supply of power the you need to have it regulated? you would save yourself some money by just buying a UPS to prevent surges or powerloss.

Personally I always go with a UPS that has AVR - helps keep that power nice and clean.

i dont even use a UPS.. though i prob should

Same here...knock on wood...even though I have not had a single issue in over 15 years!

I use a lot of Tripp Lite products. I also have two UPS's by APC that work great as well.

well then, I will look more on UPS with AVR I think.. Personally, its worth having an avr especially when your area/region has an unstable power distribution. instead of 220-240 it might spike to 250 or more. that would be good for my pc. What is the benefit of having an UPS anyway?

Smooth/regulate the voltage that it discharges. Most people use them for power failures. If you are working on your PC and the power goes out a UPS gives you time to save your data and properly shut down the computer.

okay thanks. yeah I work a lot in my computer. maybe I need it.
