So my house is poorly wired and every time someone turn off/on something in my house my pc loses power for a split second. This is a problem with only the outlets in the house or seem to be because the lights in my room dont turn off when this happens. I can tell that it damaged my pc quite a bit because my windows acts up randomly/My pc freezes on the loading things randomly/My cpu usage is extremely high and spikes. I would like to get a new pc but im afraid that my new pc will get the same symptoms from the repeated abuse it gets daily. Would getting a uninterruptible power supply fix all my problems until my house is fix or should i hold of till then. Also if I did get a uninterruptible power supply/brick would it be able to take the beating of what my pc would take or no?

Ok here is what i found that will help you with this problem, if you do get or build a new pc buy this too if you are in the same house. Or just buy it to protect your pc from any more damage.
