Question Using different power cables to power psu

[Fijalini786]

I have a psu that requires a 15amp 230v cable. If I use a 10amp 250v cable will it affect my pc

that is one nice PSU with whole 1 year warranty from manufacturer... wow... amazing
anyway 15A may be a little bit overrated (maybe it spikes that much??) eitherway thats for 110Volts, on ~230V it should be 7.5A, thats still quite alot... (50% efficiency doesnt seems unreal witch this cheap thing)

i could recomend u to throw it away and get something 80+ certified

Probably not because I would wager that the PSU doesn't require the full 15 amps.
What does the label that references input power on the PSU say ?

AC input : 115v - 230v / 50 - 60hz / 15A

I find that odd.
What make and model PSU is it?

Here's the thing.....that PSU is rated for 750 watts.

Even if it was only 60% efficient (it should be more than that)....it would only draw about 10 amps at 120 volts and 5 amps at 240 volts.

So I can't imagine it EVER drawing more than 10 amps and that's at 120 volts. At 240 volts it is half that.

What is the voltage in your country?

Dreadful.

Since you need to replace the PSU anyways, maybe just get a good PSU that comes with it's own power cord?
