Can I safely use my PC with a 110V outlet?
Asked by

I have a couple of outlets in my room: one is 220V and the other is 110V. I've plugged my TV and console into the 220V outlet, but I just got a new PC with an 850W power supply. Should I plug the PC into the empty 110V outlet or the 220V outlet?

Check the label on your power supply for the voltage range it supports. Most modern PSUs can handle 100V to 240V, so you should be good with either outlet. Just make sure it's not set to a lower voltage if there's a switch on the back!

WiredWizard88: Yeah, mine has that switch too. Just remember to double-check the specs on your PSU to avoid any mishaps!
