Is there a problem buying a video card in Europe?

[Melroch]

Hey guys, I have a question (maybe it's stupid).

I live in the Americas (Brazil), but I'm currently in Europe for studies.
I'm planning to buy a video card here to bring back with me since it's cheaper than buying it home.

Will there be any problems if I install it on my computer?

Thanks

Not at all. Its the same cards as everywhere else.

no problem buying, check brazillian laws if you plan to cross the border with it, tariffs may apply

I think the only component that might have issues could be a PSU since voltage varies from country to country. Every other component would work since there are no region specific specifications for things like RAM, CPU, GPU, motherboard etc.

Would have to be some backward old psu, all psu's I see are 100V-240V

Most PSU are 110v+240v and even further most are auto sense at this point, but there are still some out there that are 110v only or 240v only.

Only issue I'd imagine is warranty... Since you are buying in Europe, you'd probably have to RMA it back to Europe, and they might have issues shipping a new card to Brazil. Check with the manufacturer to be sure.
