    A must have PC component

    My PC plays an important role in my life. I am either working or playing on it. And PCs have become more and more expensive. If I have to replace my graphic card it can easily cost over 1,000 dollars. Computer memory is at an all time high price today at the end of 2025. The computer industry is growing AI technology and expanding everywhere it can. Tariffs are on and off and it's impossible to know where prices are headed or what shortages might happen next. Here in Southeast Texas the power grid has become more unreliable over the last few years. It has now become common to lose power during storms. I recently updated my gaming graphic card. My current UPS was unable to provide the power to run it while gaming and I was crashing to the desktop. I reduced the load and ran just the computer from a separate wall outlet and it became stable again. Getting a good UPS backup has always been a good idea but now it takes on a greater importance. The APC - Back-UPS Pro 1050VA is able to provide the power to run my gaming computer. It has a great build quality and replacement batteries are relatively easy to get. The display is easy to read and provides several pages of information regarding the quality of the incoming electrical signal and battery status. It includes both type A and C USB charging ports. There are six battery backup outlets and four surge only outlets. Other surge protection includes network and coax connections. The unit has a wiring fault protection indicator and does Automatic Voltage Regulation of the incoming signal. There is a $250,000 lifetime connected equipment protection policy and free technical support. The APC - Back-UPS Pro 1050VA also comes with a 3-year warranty. The PowerChute software you can download is quite comprehensive. It runs in a browser window and required me to setup a local account and password. Also you can find several How-to Videos online that can be helpful. I didn’t see the need to change any of the default settings. Some of the options are details on the UPS status, configurations for logging and email notifications, shutdown settings, energy management and event logging. The APC box lists up to 150 minutes of runtime. I would assume that is a max runtime since every system and what is connected will be unique. At my desktop the UPS reports 29 minutes of backup runtime. At full load while gaming and that time is reduced to 9 minutes of runtime. My system has a 13th Gen Intel i7 with a Nvidia 5080 graphic card. Setup of the UPS was easy and you have to access the battery to connect it before use. Overall this has been a pleasant update and I have already saved my progress in a Borderlands 4 boss battle that I thought would never end when the power flashed off and on. I do recommend work from home and gamers have a UPS backup system like the APC - Back-UPS Pro 1050VA. It's a small cost for the protection it provides and APC is a leader in the products they provide.

    Excellent product. It provides Back-UPS to several items, including a TV screen that may be connected to a computer. My main concern is keeping items safe from issues on the power lines, and that it does well. It also allows me to continue using the items for several hours when power is down. Good product.

    This APC battery backup device does a fantastic job of maintaining AC to our deskside PC. I run a laser printer on the same circuit as our deskside PC and every time I turned on the printer the AC would dip so low that the deskside PC shutoff. Not any more, thanks to this APC battery backup!!!!!

    I've had it for about 2 months and so far, so good. I had a 7 year old APC that finally died. This replacement is better in every way. More powerful, better software. My computer has a 750 watt power supply. There are two 32 inch monitors, a router, external hard drives, and speakers plugged-in. All good.
