Are these the type of bearings that if i put psu sideways in like a lian li case will wear out rapidly ? that are bassicly a side grade of the crappy sleeve bearing fans ?
Already have hydraulic bearing fans from Alphacool and already have terrible experience with those i dunno if hydraulic dynamic is any different then hydraulic fans.

    Greatest life. Can be mounted in any orientation.
     
    If it dies early, it is likely a manufacturing/cost cutting reason, not an issue with the type of bearing in general.

    I think you confusing fluid dynamic fans with hydraulic dynamic fans unless evga is not being clear in which case i would like confirmation from evga

    I think you are confused that a hydrodynamic bearing (or "hydraulic" dynamic for some strange naming reason) is somehow not a type of fluid dynamic bearing.
    Same thing.
    Read the article I provided above. It even says this.

    "Hydro" and "hydraulic": same thing.
    It's just semantics and marketing.
    Hydraulic: early 17th century: via Latin from Greek hudraulikos, from hudro- ‘water’ + aulos ‘pipe’.
    Hydro: late 19th century: abbreviation.
     
    A "hydraulic dynamic bearing" is a "hydro dynamic bearing" which is a fluid bearing.

    Do my alphacool fans aren ot sleeve bearing either can be placed horizontal as well as vertical but just do not have the increased life span
    While hydro dynamic have increased lifespan and last longer ? if so how many hours contineusly till failure ? since fluid dynamic fans can last from 100,000 to 300,000 for example does evga have any psu's with these type of bearings in their fans ?

    I don't think i will trust any type of hydro fan since they mostly fluid or lubrication based and my room is often sitting between 23 to 27c which means +10c temperatures which comes close to temps these fans can potentially fail at not to mention can only mount psu side ways which probably gonna be a problem damn this sucks

    Almost every fan manufacturer has their own label for FDB (Fluid Dynamic Bearing) fans. Noctua calls their own SSO and SSO2, but it's still a fluid bearing at its core. FDB bearings are the best for longevity, sleeves are the worst. Ball bearings are in the middle, but tend to be the loudest of the three. I have 13 year old Noctua FDB fans in my case, run 24/7 and still quiet as ever.
