Correct. Voltage changes won't affect the PSU as long as they're within operating range.
That's why Corsair stopped making 230V only PSUs. When mains dropped below 180V, the PSU would shut off. Apparently, these kinds of brown outs are common in SE Asia and India, but those are HUGE markets for entry level product.
It only costs $1.50 US to make a 230V only PSU into a full range unit. In the grand scheme of things, it's an investment (as it out weighs the cost of customer support and RMA).
