Searched for "PC resets upon switching over to UPS" and similar. No results. Could someone here help?
My games desktop resets every time power switches over to UPS. The Dell office desktop stays on.
MPE 7501 750W power supply to ROGSTRIX H370-F motherboard and Nvida 3080 graphics card.
UPS is a Victron Multigrid transformer-based inverter, supposedly full-time double-conversion.
Perhaps a spike?
 
Try doing the same test with a normal line interactive or online UPS. Seems the power supply does not like the slow transfer speed of the Victron inverter.

Check how long the transfer time is on the Victron VS a normal Line-interactive UPS. I may be wrong but the double-conversion only applies after the inverter has switched from Eskom to the battery.
 
Yeah the Victron is switching too slowly or the PC is hypersensitive to it more like.

An in-line baby UPS would solve it.

Some cheaper power supplies also don't like the cut over
 
Yep, I'm guessing that the Victron doesn't advertise it as UPS, but rather EPS.

Some devices will be fine with the longer changeover but you should rather have a small dedicated UPS on sensitive equipment like PCs.
