Open up your case and took a look at your power supply, should be a label with the model number + watts on there.
If you can't find me that, get me basic specs and I can get ya an estimate.

It's an Antec True 480 PSU.
Input is 115V/12A. I'm assuming those are the numbers I use to get the right UPS for me right?
I'm using a formula to get the right VA/capacity for the UPS btw. Is this right?
To get Volt Amps: Take wattage of PC and multiply by 1.67 or take ampage and multiply by 120.
Do the same for monitor and speakers. Add that number up and you get the capacity of the UPS you should get.
