I recently got an Isolator that has 50 db, 75 db, and 2 Isolated Filter Bank lines. I was wondering which I should plug my computer into, if it even matters. PSU is a 750 watt.

Alrighty, tyvm. I know what they are used for, for amps and such. But I didn't know if it would have an effect on the computer or not.

Noise filtering power strips are mostly gimmicks. Any well designed PSU will have more than enough filtering built in. Even critical measurement labs generally don't bother too much with mains filtering.
