_OGX_ Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 It depends on how many ports your GPU has. For example, if it has three HDMI ports, you're good to go. What about gtx 980 its has display port Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/764482-pc-beginner-question/?do=findComment&comment=1066895648 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMcSame Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Does psu like corsair have regions like us verison or uk verison Sort of. If you order one they should send you the cord with the correct plug on it.

SilverRST Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Weird sh*t. I've never heard of region PSU. However, there should be no issue with that if you order the PSU in your country. I live in the Netherlands and they always are EU andnnever include an UK thingy. So if you live in the US, you should have an US based PSU. I don't see why the store would send you an UK based PSU.

sivispacem Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 The are usually switchable between 120v and 240v. They used to come with a switch for doing it but these days it's done automatically.

yoječ Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Low-end PSUs sold in Europe might be 230V only. That's because limiting the input voltage to 230V makes the PSU cheaper to manufacture. However, there's no such thing as "115V only" PSU, since that wouldn't affect manufacturing costs. All power supplies sold in the US should work both at 115V and 230V. Typically, PSUs with no PFC or passive PFC come with a switch that's used to choose between 115V and 230V input voltage. With active PFC it's done automatically.

PhillBellic Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 The PSU in my rig switches voltages automatically. Switch it to your countries voltage; A PSU for illustrative purposes. Note the red switch under the power socket. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/764482-pc-beginner-question/?do=findComment&comment=1066903423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
