Eventhough almost every--except RMx--for now--Corsair PSU models die on me, I would still recommend them, atleast they lasted more than 4/6 years. If you venture enough, Amazon SG was selling RM850x 2021 for S$125 last week and it arrived today. Note that, Convergent will not warrant them and shipping/RMA 2~3 kg PSU oversea is gonna cost you. With 2/3 price of local unit, if it works for 5 years, I'd be happy.
Thats a steal

Hey guys is it better to use hybrid mode or normal mode for Seasonic 1000w psu? Usage is for gaming.

Refer to the manual. I am using hybrid as my PSU fan facing upward toward the case.

my psu exhaust out of case. is sideway.
Personally my view if in your case you can use either hybrid or normal no issue.

Only take note on normal mode the PSU fan will spin all time even normal operation non gaming to suck in cool air and cool the PSU components.

You will need some gap between wall and pc to let it have good air ventilation

passive modes require air intake from the case if not the PSU fan will keep ramping up and down

auto mode intake air from outside the case
