I am moving to the UK from the states soon and I was curious if I could just buy a wall plug for my Corsair PSU to fit the UK sockets? 

 

Yes it should work no problem since the current lineup of PSU are auto switching and can handle 110-240V.

Yes, the power supply will automatically switch to the new voltage.

You want one of these cables for UK.

You can also buy them from high street stores such as RS Components, PC World and Maplin but you will probably pay more there.
