I just bought an EVGA G3 750W PSU in the U.S. which came with an AC Power cable. The cable is labeled as 10A 125V 1250W. However I will be moving to a different country which supplies 240V 50Hz to residential power outlets. Will it be OK if I just connect the PSU power cable to a universal power adapter, something like this 
Or will I have to buy a new power cable listed for 240V? Thanks.

    You'll need to buy the correct cable.

    +1 new cable
     
    Most adapters are very limited in the wattage the can allow to pass through them
