Hi....

I wonder if anyone ever had problem related with the LOW or HIGH input Voltage ( I know according with manual this power supply can work between 115V / 230V) but there is a manual switch to set the input voltage - this is not automatic....
I´m using this power supply unit in BRAZIL and the MAIN entrance is sometimes floating in 130v (105v - 132v) and sometimes the power supply is going down...... When I try this PC in another site this is working fine...

Can someone help me to understand if this is normal behavior... in this case "could be good" or I will need use a power supply unit with automatic input voltage.....(or call someone to solve my input issue - )

thanks a lot....

Yes, That is what I would expect to see if the input voltage is off-limits. If you need to use the PC there, I would suggest getting something with full-range APFC.

Also, I have split this discussion off from the Thermaltake TR2 Bronze review. Your PSU is obviously not a TR2 Bronze (since that unit has full-range APFC), and so this discussion isn't relevant to that thread.
