Hi, I'm new here and am just building my first gaming pc. Currently on PS5. I've heard mixed opinions of course, but I wanted to know if its best to plug your PC directly into the wall outlet, or to a good surge protector. I've heard both. Also, has anyone ever done or heard of someone bringing more power to the circuit they're running their PC on? I had an electrician (that also games on PC) tell me that I may want to run higher wattage cable/wire to my gaming room. I'm building a PC that shows it will pull about 695 watts. I have a 1000 watt power supply and my GPU recommends a 850 watt. I've read most standard wall outlets give about 1500 to 1800 watts. Do you think I'll be ok just leaving that circuit as is, or should I add more power? Also, surge protector or no? I appreciate any input or advice.
