I recently upgraded my PC with a new RX 9070 graphics card, but now my uninterruptible power supply (UPS) rated at 1000W shuts down while I'm gaming. I have to let it recharge before I can use it again. I'm trying to figure out if the UPS is not sufficient for my setup or if my outlets aren't providing enough power. Here's a bit about my build: I'm using an i9 11th gen 11900k CPU. Any insights?

Have you checked the power consumption of all your components? If they exceed what your power supply can handle, you might need a stronger UPS. With an i9 in the mix, a 1000W supply might be pushing it. What was your previous GPU by the way?
Switching from an RTX 3060 to the RX 9070 definitely changes the power needs. If you’re considering upgrading to a 1250W UPS, that should improve things, but it might be worth looking at even higher wattage if you want to future-proof your setup!
