1383441 2014-09-08 06:01:00 If the PSU has Active PFC (which most modern PSUs do), it can be used worldwide without issue.
Most older PSUs (Passive PFC or without PFC) have a switch that can be set for 120v or 240v operation - just don't set it incorrectly!

BUT - some PSUs don't have a switch and do not have APFC either. In that case they usually have a sticker showing which voltage they can use, which will generally be whatever the country they were sold in uses.
