Please share your PC's specifications so I can determine whether an adapter or a new power cable would be more suitable. I'll avoid recommending an adapter unless your system is low-power or the cable quality is uncertain.

Your system runs on an i7-3770 with 500 GB SSD and 120 GB HDD. The power meter shows you're using about 132 watts. You're thinking about upgrading to a GTX 1050 Ti soon.

I discovered this on Google, but it leads to the same destination as the wall.

It's a C14, the other end (the one linked to your PSU) is C13. You should purchase either:
- A power strip that includes a C14 outlet (often costly)
- A reliable C13 to Type F or C13 to Type E power cable

Information for future reference (in case you ever need it): Egypt employs Type C and F plug & outlet connections. Similar to Indonesia, this setup is common. However, variations in build quality may occur, so if your device doesn't fit a Type F into a Type C socket, use a suitable adapter. Your system likely doesn’t draw much power. For future high-power PCs, think about swapping a Type C wall outlet for a Type F one to eliminate the adapter.
