I've just moved from the uk to the us. I have a uk power supply (a corsair CX600M). Is there anyway I can change the voltage so that I can use it in the us, I am under the impression that some power supplies have a red switch to change voltage but I don't have one.

You should be fine. Most PSUs are supposedly auto-volt in terms of AC input (100V - 240V) just as what your Corsair CX600M is. There's no more "manual switch" that needs to be done.

You can check out the specs if you like (I don't know if you got the old CX600M w/ the green sticker or the new CX600M w/ the gray sticker). See the Tech Specs which reads: "AC Input: 100V - 240V"
