    Most PSU's have a AC Voltage "Switch" on the back(Its generally red) w/ labels 110V and 240V-

    In the specifications further down on the page past the other items listed it is rated for 100-240V so I am guessing like Grady said, it has a switch right by or near the plug for switching between the 2. (90-264VAC is the full range of it)

    Yep, almost ALL psu's have a variable AC voltage switch, due to the fact that the US is mentally retarted and doesnt use 240V AC, so they have to include it to enable them to function properly in other countries.

    Thanks yall will look at the manual cause it wasn't apparent where this switch was, the IT office was saying most modern ones don't have switches anymore though. I hope this is the case because you have to remove everything from my case to get to the PSU.

    It didn't seem to have any switches when I put it in, don't even think it had one for power :).

    Your welcome man.

    Your IT office is 1 of 2 things :P

    1) Using proprietary PSU's/"Odd" OEM PSU's built for specific-use at your company/place of work in the US/Other, and are saying that because *their& PSU's dont have switches

    2) Are nimwits that have never looked at the back of any PSU from 1990-2015( Shit, I think switches where there even before that, ever since the ATX12v Standard, at LEAST since its 2nd Revision) or built a PC :P

    Not sure what your implying as I stated my PSU does not have a switch for its mode ;) it's auto regulating. So your statement seems harsh to my it folks who have nothing to do with my pc.
