Surge Protection Help

I was just wondering if I need a certain part/parts for surge protection.

Do I need it??? What one would you recommend? (I need to buy it off PC Case Gear and is their a inexpensive option?)

If you actually want protection, then you'll want to buy a nice unit.

Tells you what to look for.

Personally I recommend Tripp Lite, it's what I use and they offer a 50k$ lifetime warranty against damage.

A transformer blew near my house last summer and took out my surge suppressor, but my computer made it. They sent me a new unit for free.
