More power consumption: AC or HighEnd PC

[freekgeek]

I figures High End Gaming PC's take a lot of power to run
Or do I just sound crazy?

I run both, my AC and my gaming PC. My AC requires more power than my main rig. However, I have around 3 computers running, lol, so all 3 combined consume more power than my AC. If you're running an AC off the same circuit as your computer, it would be best to get a good quality UPS with AVR, so your parts don't get killed by the power fluctuations.

just don´t plug them in the same outlet

you shouldnt have any problem plugging into the same outlet.

you shouldnt have any problem plugging into the same outlet.

why not?

why not?

...because if you get a UPS with AVR, like I suggested, then the power fluctuations from the AC will be conditioned by the UPS.
