I'm in South Korea now and I'm worried about plugging in my (US made) desktop that runs on 120V. In Korea they use 240V in all power outlets, so I was wondering if it would be sufficient to get a power cord that can handle that, or if the hardware itself couldn't handle that power. My computer uses this as it's power supply: HP 460W POWER SUPPLY 5188-2862 24-pin If you can tell me what I can do to make sure it doesn't blow out when I plug it in, I would appreciate it.

this psu has an input voltage switch just under the power plug (this little red switch). this switch has 2 positions: 1. 100 - 127V input 2. 200 - 240V input if you are in Korea you have to set the switch on 200 - 240V and you can use a cord for korean outlets. don't forget to switch it back to 100 - 127V if you're back at home.
