Within the next few months I will be emigrating to the USA.
Having spent over £1500 building a machine recently I would like to take it with me. Does anyone know whether it will work ok with just a new power lead or will I need to buy a new PSU. Can I buy a transformer of some sort? and what about the other items - printer, external hard drive, USB hub, speakers etc. Any help / advice would be appreciated.
 
Most stuff is switchable these days though you'd have to check on your brand.
Laptop power supplies and mobile phone chargers etc all have it written on then.
Something like 110~240V @ 50 - 60 Hz.

My Corsair PSU ..."Universal AC input 90~264V automatically scans and detects the correct voltage. No more hassle of flipping that tiny red switch!"

All you'd need then is the 3 pin to 2 pin convertor or maybe look on ebay in the USA and just the 2 pin lead for a PSU IF yours is like mine.
