Hi, in your region the domestic electricity line operates at 230 volts. Having a higher voltage line can improve the power supply of the PSU by reducing energy loss during transmission.

Computer power supplies tend to be more efficient at 230V than at 115V. This is evident from the example provided, where the same supply performs better under higher voltage conditions. Since these supplies often need to deliver combined outputs, efficiency improves with increased voltage.
