Answer:

Power supply

Step-by-step explanation:

A Power supply unit (or PSU) converts high AC current to low-voltage regulated DC current for the internal components of a computer.

Now a days personal computers universally use switched-mode power supplies.

Some of the power supplies have a manual switch for selecting input voltage, while modern computers automatically adapt to the mains voltage.
