Im not sure if this is the correct place for this because it bridges a few topics, but anyway

 

I have a 1080p 27" Viewsonic monitor powered by a kettle lead and a RM850e PSU also powered by a kettle lead, would a Y-split kettle lead i have kicking about be safe to power both of these at the same time? (UK so 230V outlets)

 

One of these

PCPP has my build pegged at 644W for some more info (-peripherals)

Yes it's fine. If I recall correctly it should be fine up to 13A.
