1. It is very well built 2. Easy to setup 3. Perfect for my NAS, high end desktop PC (and graphics card), a couple of monitors, Modem, and router - 20 minutes of operation after loss of power. 4.

The SMC1000C model (600w) may be sufficient for most gaming PC's. Mine is overclocked and uses more power than most so I opted for the SMC1500C (900w) model.
Many things in menu, runs silent most of the time
Keeps my computer and LCD monitor on for about 10-15 minutes before dying. USB connectivity works well with Windows XP to have it safely shutdown.
Easy installation & setup Built-in display turns off by itself 600W capacity, a moderate gaming rig shouldn't overload it Sockets/ports for ethernet, TV cable, USB (charging)
Top quality construction and features.
- can shutdown my computer after some time on battery. - Can power my 300W system for ~1H - silent operation - web GUI to monitor the system - installed agent popup a warning when power is lost. - warranty is for 3 years
Works as described, costs less than other brands for the same output.
Front Screen is Great - Metered Easy Setup
Item was well packaged and was exactly as represented in the advertisement. The battery works and the backup unit no longer alarms. The instructions that came with the battery clearly illustrated how to replace the battery. In addition, instructions were provided telling you how to obtain a free UPS return label to ship back the old battery.
- Quiet - Nice design - Small footprint - APC Reputation - LCD display shuts off after a few seconds
Great product. Seamless switch to battery. Quality of APC for homeowners needing low watt demand. DO IT its worth it!!!! *** I have more UPCs in a commercial environment than I know what to do with.......this is in my personal residence, I know what a good UPC is.
- doesn't necessarily require software to check it's operational status, has its own LCD display menu - large enough for a PC and medium size flat screen TV
This UPS replaced an APC Smart UPS 750 RM 2U - also a rackmount unit. The SRT1000RMXLA adds a super-functional display, power-conditioning capabilities in addition to larger battery capacity/improved runtime.
