UK Mains PSU Cable

[DrFancyPants505]

Hi everyone,
I am taking the plunge into building my first PC.

I had begun collecting the parts to my basket when I noticed my PSU (be quiet! Pure Power 11 600W 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply) included an image of a EU two pin mains cable and not a UK one.

- Modular Cable Management: Yes - Voltage (Vac): 100 - 240
- Input current (A): 8/5

This is probably a super noob and dumb question but can't wrap my head around it, am i completely fine just buying this UK Kolink kettle plug to substitute for the EU one? Really dont want to fry my first build!

Hi welcome

The correct cable should come with the psu, so you shouldn't have to buy a separate one. I would suggest the Phanteks AMP 650W instead though as it is fully modular and has a longer warranty of 10 years.

My basket at OcUK:

• 1 x Phanteks AMP 650W 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply (SKU: CA-09Q-PT) = £74.99

Total: £85.49 (includes delivery: £10.50)​

If for some reason the psu arrives with an EU plug then drop a webnote and they should send one out free of charge.

Hi Lee,
Thank you very much for your response. I did think that surley they would have stock with UK cables, but wanted to be sure!
And thanks for the suggestion, i will take a look!

Also - if you are interested/ have the time, would you mind checking out my build to see if have missed any glaring issues regarding compatability etc? I would be super grateful.
Thank you
