A buddy of mine from the Netherlands is giving me his PC. The problem is, those guys use a 220v power and in my country, we use a 110v power. So, I need to change the power source.

This is the PC config...

• Asus x370 Pro Motherboard
• Ryzen 7
• 16gb of memory
• 500gb SSD

Thoughts?

Perhaps something like this? I never use one before as I never visited country with 110v yet.

Possibly a tad too much.

That's for powering up Super AI for spaceship! We don't need such power, this is enough.


It's cheap, environment friendly, and smell good, too!

If the power supply is marked 100/240V, 50/60HZ you should be good.

Sadly, that's for powering up a single LED. You might need the whole truck of them for powering up a PC

You would need around 400 watts and up as a minimum. But as mentioned in a previous post, if it supports 100-240V, 50/60HZ, and it's in good working order, you should be all ser. Don't be afraid of opening the box while unplugged and read the specs.

This truck will be empty before it gets to his house if his location is to be believed. Just kidding.
