As for how long will it run your system: either read that article for some a bit old information, or go to the manufacturers website. APC's for example gives an estimated runtime for a given power draw link.
Set the Power Draw for the actual power consumption of your rig, not to the rated power of your PSU. Most avarage machines use about 250-350W of power with a monitor (yeah, PSUs are a bit overhyped).
Would you need a 500V one for a system with a 500v psu like a Antec NeoHE 500V? and how much would they cost if i would need a more powerful UPS? Also do they come with replacement facias, e.g silver or do you just have to do it yourself.
