AVR is advisable in locations with frequent/severe voltage fluctuations. BUT most good PC power supplies could handle voltage fluctuation. ATX V2.01 specifies the following:
For 115 VAC - 90V min./135V max.
For 230 VAC - 180V min/265V max.
Good power supplies that comply w/ specifications usually have global certifications on their sticker labels (e.g. TUV, UL, FCC, etc.)
Power supplies with active Power Factor Correction also have auto ranging (or auto-volt) and are capable of handling wide voltage fluctuations.

a voltage regulator is necessary when you have bad power lines. I your tv flickers when you turn on your microwave or you have brown outs, it will save your computer ( or whatever it is protecting). Although there are not absolutely necessary. They almost always come as part of a uninterpretable power supply (UPS).
