Hey guys -- just wanted to ask if anyone has any experience buying graphics cards overseas?

I'm going overseas (US), and I want to pick up a Nvidia GTX980 (which is at a far lower price), but I'm not too sure if there are any voltage / hardware differences with the overseas one versus one bought locally from local distributors...

Any advice?

why would there be any differences ? don't tell me you're talking about 110v and 220v...
for computer stuffs, there's no such thing...
bought 3x970 and 2x980, no issues so far...

bought the 970 first, then returned it, then bought the 980 next...
it pales in comparison to some people here who bought 2 titan x from amazon...
