Hi, I own a PX-1000 PSU.
I have a question regarding hybrid mode(semi-passive mode).
Is it safe to use hybrid mode when the PSU is facing down?

Does the PSU have ventilation when it's facing down? Many cases have holes and ventilation there, but some odd ones don't.

Yes, my case is Lian-Li Lancool II Mesh.
The included manual recommends that PSU should face up if the hybrid mode is on, but the manual doesn't say whether it is safe to use the hybrid mode when PSU is facing down.

I bought Thermalright True Spirit 140 Power and Le grand macho RT few days ago.
While the look of these are pretty neat, especially TS140P, man what a sexy heatsink, the performances were not so good.
Compared to Noctua D15, the former is at least 10C hotter, while latter is 5C hotter.
I originally suspected it was mounting issue, but I had remounted several times, and temps are still the same.
Anyways, TS140P is now sitting comfortably in the shelf as a decoration
Edit : I forgot to mention, I used A15 as heatsink fan on all the coolers.
