Default new ring for computer room?

Hey all,



Many moons ago i posted about a new CU and fitting



Well, did this myself which was easier than i thought, though time
consuming! Put in a MK 12way split-load which i hope will be sufficient.
I live in a trad 3 bed semi



Anyway, have now rewired the house (most of) and have three rings,
upstairs, downstairs (RCD) and kitchen, 2 light circuits, 1 new 45A
shower and 1 for immersion heater + 1 outdoor power circuit. Have yet to
add seperate non-RCD circuit for fridge/freezer



My question is should i put in a new ring for my computer room? It
basically hosts two pc's, monitor, printer, scanner, router, wireless
kit, speakers etc...all the normal stuff. Main PC is usually always on.
Is there any reason for putting it on a second circuit? Would i gain
anything? Ig i go down the new route, should it be a ring or radial and
if radial, what cable/fuse? Am currently putting extra sockets in this
room for said kit. Existing socket is currently on upstairs circuit (non
RCD)



Cheers



K
