    Hey guys I live in Canada but I go to Bangladesh during my summer break and I would like to buy an Alienware Optx 21.5 inch monitor for back home, I'm worried that it wont work there because the wall outlets in Bangladesh are 220V as opposed to 110V here in North America. I know alot of new systems have a built in converter, do you guys know if the monitor has one to?

    Heres the link to the monitor, I couldnt find anything on the website

    Yea, probably need a plug converter, to get the plug to fit in the wall, maybe a few dollars once you get there, but you won't need a power inverter to convert the 220 to 110.
