[SOLVED] Will I be able to use my whole computer setup if I bring my computer from Canada to Singapore?

Am I able to use my computer setup if I bring my whole computer setup from Canada to Singapore? I know both countries use different standard voltages (Canada and america with 120V at 60Hz while Singapore uses 220V/240V at 50Hz. The outlets shape and size are also different. Will it work just fine by using an adapter on my monitor and power supply unit cables? Or will I have to purchase a new monitor and power supply unit when I'm in Singapore... I don't want to cause any risks. Help appreciated. Thanks

Usually adapters only adapts the shape, not the voltage. You will have to find out if your PSU and monitor works with both 120V and 240V. It's usually printed on a label.
Example: my Benq G2412HD monitor bought in 2009, has a label that says "100-240V~50/60Hz".

Hey man, here are all the labels on my Monitor: https://imgur.com/a/uK0Sp9Y and all the labels on my PSU: https://imgur.com/a/35ZxqzT

I am not sure what information I'm supposed to look at. Need your help.

Thanks

Sorry for the delay, had a PC breakdown.
A Google search for your PSU (100-W1-0430) reveals it works with both 110V and 240V. Your monitor (HP 22CWA) seem to come with a power adapter (model ADPC1945), which has a label that says 100-240V.
