Tech Help Power consumption with my mini fridge?

[SigmaMX]

Hey guys,

Recently I purchased a mini fridge to store my beers and what not where my Pc is and I plugged it in the same place as all my gear.

All my PC components are plugged to a breaker and the fridge is connected directly to the wall.

Ever since my 2 monitors keep shutting down for 2 seconds then coming back up. This happens so randomly I am not sure if it is because the fridge or is it my breaker or the new power source I just got or what exactly. But it is true I have a LOT of stuff plugged to the wall:

CPU, 2 monitors, 2 fans, one towered one desktop, the mini fridge, a printer, another breaker where I plug 3 phones, my wife's Mcbook pro and the audio system I have.

Am I overloading this? Any tips to avoid my screens from blinking all day?

thaaaaaaanks as usual, you guys are awesome.

Have you tried moving it elsewhere then seeing what happens? I think that would be the easiest course of action, try moving it to another circuit then work from there. I would not be plugging a fridge in with my PC though, ever. Just asking for trouble in my opinion.

The more technical answer to this would be find out how much power usage is between the two and see what that circuit is capable of but, go with the easy solution first.

You know what, m8? you are absolutely right, I am just calling for trouble.

The moment I unplugged my fridge, both screens flinched. I'll just move it to somewhere else.

Thanks for the input.
