The computer is the important part here. You can put a 1200w power supply in the PC, and if your PC only draws 150w, the power supply is only going to draw say 160w from the wall.

We can only guess at what the other things draw, but odds are they aren't all running at the same time anyways.

The PSU will only draw what it needs to run the computer.

Convert the 600W PSU to the Amperage it will draw at your wall voltage. Simple math formula. Do the same for all your other devices and then see if you have sufficient margin. I don't know the power draw of your refrigerator, but if it is anything like a US refrigerator, I'd say "hell no". Or even the CRT TV and the computer together might elicit the same reaction. Both of those devices should have labels on them to indicate power draw. Each lamp you listed has a wattage. You do the math.
