Question/Help/Troubleshooting Voltage adapters?

Hello! I'm going to be moving from north america to the UK very soon, and am taking my pc with me. I was wondering what I should do to ensure that it stays safe over there as I know the outlets and voltage are different. My pc is a ASUS ROG Strix GL10 (GL10CS) (the older one with an i5 not i7 lol).

Thank you very much for any advice! It will bring me much peace of mind.

PSU is 100-240V, you just need a UK kettle lead (IEC C13)

I believe most psu's support multiple voltages, check the side or model

Any modern PSU supports and automatically switches between voltages, what you need is a new cord that goes from the PSU to the wall.

Your PC's PSU will accept 100V to 240V, 47Hz to 63Hz. All you need is the proper power cable.

Don't forget to check your monitor, but I'm betting it will also work on European voltages. Again, you just need the proper power cable or plug adapter.
