PSU from USA to EU

[Zoran94]

Hi!
I just want to make sure that in order to take my PSU from USA to EU I just need to have Active PFC and the appropriate cord for the region.

Thanks for reading!

In the EU (i'm in the UK), they use 240V at 50Hz, on some PSUs there is a little red switch to switch between voltages (120/240').
And yes you need to get a new cord- http://www.google.com/imgres?q=eu+plug&um=1&hl=en&client=opera&sa=N&rls=en&channel=suggest&tbm=isch&tbnid=1kkuddJLoWWKEM:&imgrefurl=http://www.ghdaustraliaperth.com/ghd-iv-styler-p-13.html&docid=biyziTamFB3-HM&imgurl=http://www.ghdaustraliaperth.com/images/1/plug.jpg&w=406&h=392&ei=VpwVUIjKH8q60QXg34D4AQ&zoom=1&biw=1366&bih=646

I was thinking of getting this PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371053 Since it has an input voltage that supports the country that I will be going to and I was going to use http://www.quail.com/C-112/Power-Cords-International-Power-Cords.aspx To get my cord.

They are fine, just remember to get the right plug type, in Europe they use those 2 round pin type plugs .
