PC Peripherals Help with Corsair VX450

[verma]

Many members here are using VX450, so I'm. I've APC 650VA Back up UPS.

so now problem is how to connect PSU power cord to UPS, since PSU has a 13amp power plug (big one) and UPS has 6amp power socket (medium one) :huh: .

Options are:

1. Use a 15amp to 5amp converter (looks safer to me since I'll be using same 13amp power cable supplied with PSU)

2. Use another power cord (which mostly is 6amp only, looks unsafe to me since the PSU may require more than 6amps at times which inturn may burnt something)

what you say guys, which is safer option?

also how the existing VX450 users are connecting it to the AC outlet?

Need some help by today afternoon.

Thanks

^^^^bump.

Any help guys. want to buy something by afternoon.

so which is better option?

230 volts x 6 amps = 1380 watts.

which is more than enough for a 450 watt supply.

Just get another power cord.
