Seems reasonable.
>Recommended UPS: 1750VA
What the actual fuck? Wouldn't a 1500VA/1350W or 1500VA/1500W UPS be more than enough? Good kW PSUs should have active PFC of ~0.99.

>I don't understand what NTCs are

It's not that I didn't expect a lot of power, it's just I didn't expect needing a 20 Amp outlet and UPS to go with it.

>inrush

To brief to matter. Otherwise most PSUs wouldn't work on any consumer UPS.

You do realize there is a reason why I own a 3000VA/2700 watt USP?

That you bought it used from ebay

Actually no, I paid $1400 for a open box with a new battery.

And what are you powering that needs over 1500W?

two dual Xeon boxes, 32 sticks of ram, 16x HDDs, 8x SSDs, 1 raid card, 2 HBAs, 10x 10GbE NICs, 2 GPUs, a Cisco switch and a couple APs, with capacity for more on a 208V line. ffs even the fans use over 100 watts.

So you're using way over 1000 Watts

if it is under full load one of the boxes uses a bit over 900 watts, so yes. Relatively idle it uses about 750 not counting the AC unit or window fan depending on the time of the year.

And what does this have to do with the OP?

We were talking about inrush current.

I don't follow. How does your 1900W+ system needing a 2700W UPS have anything to do with OP's 1000W system and inrush current?

When did amd ever promise low power?

They were supposed to beat Intel at everything.
