Good Evening.

I have a computer for children with an intel i7 870 cpu, gpu amd HD 6970 2GB, 2x4GB DDR3 RAM, 2 hard drives (1 ssd and 1 hdd) and a 24 '' led screen which they use for both school and light gaming. I would like to ask what size ups is enough. Finding the consumption through https://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator I see that it produces max 460 watts. Do you think that an 800va / 480w is enough or better to go to a 1000va / 600w? I do not care if it lasts too long, just as it lifts the load and lasts 1-2 minutes so that we can turn off the computer.

That's all :)
