Solution
The monitor should have its own power source and does not rely on your power supply.
If you referring to monitor cables, they just transfer data e.g HDMI, VGA, Displayport.
The monitor should come with a cable if you bought it as a retail product but its rare that they give you HDMI/Displayport unless you getting a premium monitor. A VGA or DVI cable is most likely to be given depending on what monitor you are getting.

They plug into wall/surge protector/UPS, along with the PC, just like a TV or game console or table lamp. In North America these are NEMA 5-15p to IEC C13. Most folks call them a power cord.
For a moment I thought you were looking for a C13-C14 cord. Way, way back, on the AT power supply you had a plug for monitor power as well, and it used these cords (We'd see them now as extension cords) The ATX standard dropped this monitor power.

If you getting the products from the US, you be getting a US plug. In the US, electricity is supplied at 110 or 120 volts. You need to check if the power brick for the monitor can run 100-240V, 50/60 Hz. THis means you can use it anywhere with the correct plugs.
Ideally getting the power supply and the monitor from your own country is better.

I'm getting the Asus VG248QE 144Hz 24.0" Monitor the power supply is ax760 corsair, the psu accepts 240 volts which is what the volts are, and OMG I just checked and the montior does also accept 240 volts, I was so frickin scared when you mentioned that because I already bought the monitor...
It can run 100-240V, 50/60 Hz
When you get your monitor, check the power brick to be sure. Same with the power supply.
Now you could use an adapter if the socket type is different or replace the power cord with your socket type. Note there are different type of power cords, you need the correct type to use it with the monitor and the power supply.

Singapore. It has a three prong wall socket, and has 240 volts... You can search it up to clarify.

socket g,exactly the same 240v 3 pin switched/grounded system we have in the uk - imo the best standard by far.
Youll have no issues,

What do you mean no issues? Do all I need is a convertor then?

NO I mean you wont have any problems - your monitor will come with a 3 pin power cable & so will your corsair psu
thats a very very nice monitor by the way,good choice.

So, when I open up the power supply and the monitor, it will have a power cord that supports a three prong? (just confirming) Also, thanks for the compliment, it was the 2nd cheapest and a more reliable 144hz monitor.

Didnt see that mate,I wouldnt buy from overseas.
The PSU cable is not going to pose a problem,you can get one of those anywhere.
Id be more concerned with the monitor,cant see if the transformer is internal or if its built into the cable.
