Power usage in Task Manager says "very high"

I am running the next parts:

  • SMPS 750W
  • Ryzen 9 3900x
  • RTX 3060
  • 24 inches led monitor

These parts are connected to 600 VA ups and wherever I run a software I see my power usage shoot up very high and in a very light software as AutoCAD I see some lags and flickers. My CPU is connected to the ups with a 16amp to 5 amp converter as it has a power plug. I am not sure but i think either this converter is causing this or my ups is on a lighter end.

Please clarify also is there any other possibility of this cause.

According to my calculations, the 600 VA of the UPS is below the need of your hardware.

Verify using a Power Supply Calculator likeOuterVisionto calculate your exact needs, then get a UPS (and PSU) with a comfortable power margin.

Do not run without enough power, or you risk your hardware.
