The "formula" is simple. VA is Volt Amps and Ohm's law says volts times
Amps equals watts. Therefore 500 VA = 500 watts. Your computer *should*
have a nameplate somewhere on the back (if it was manufactured from a
factory) that has a power rating somewhere in either voltage and watts or
amps and voltage. You should be able to estimate the size from there.
