I strongly advise against connecting a PC straight to a wall outlet. The frequent surges and spikes I observe in the Midwest and elsewhere in the US—and similar issues globally—make this risky. A reliable surge protector is essential: consider an APC SurgeArrest (https://www.microcenter.com/product/4579...-usb-black) or an APC UPS that powers your tower and monitor from the battery side. This prevents your power supply unit from handling any voltage spikes. Other brands and lower-wattage options are available if needed. Always adapt to your local electrical standards when traveling.
