Both have quality capacitors
Yes, of course. I'm not an expert on electronic components and PSU architecture, but I enjoy reading professional reviews and I learn a lot from them. Like: "They say that this thing is good. Hm, why is it good? Let's google and find out!"Of course, a PSU is so much more than a box of capacitors. Even if you have the best capacitors, a crappy design is going to make sure the PSU fails in time.
The point of me saying that? I thought I should mention that. No ill will.Point?

The name is a little confusing because it says "GP-AP850GM", and "AP850GM" printed on the PSU itself, but it's the correct one. See the Gigabyte site: https://www.gigabyte.com/se/Power-Supply/GP-AP850GM#kf
Kitguru also reviewed the Seasonic: https://www.kitguru.net/components/.../seasonic-focus-plus-gold-fx-850w-psu-review/
usually what i care to find regarding stuff like that before buyin is lots of User's review and apparently gigabyte aint being bought by much to find enough info on so its unkown to me and i wont risk it .
i will go back to Focus plus and might even Prime Ultra if i find a good deal for it

I got a good deal on the Prime Ultra 850 W Titanium (20% discount, if I remember correctly). My system doesn't need an 850 W PSU, but hey, it's efficient and the fan in hybrid mode doesn't spin when I play my light games. If I got one with lower wattage it the fan would have started sooner (it starts at 40% load). Since it's 80 Plus Titanium it will draw less power from the wall, but I doubt I will notice it on my electricity bills.i will go back to Focus plus and might even Prime Ultra if i find a good deal for it
No ill will. Just, I didn't write the review and since working in the industry, I've become disenchanted with reviewers and their methodologies, feel they grade too easily and can't possibly reflect long term reliability.
Gigabyte is relatively new to the PSU biz (well.. they're making a come back. They were around 10 years ago) and they use an OEM that nobody is familiar with (more known for power bricks then ATX power supplies) and they're pushing mostly in developing markets where the bigger brands fail to focus on marketing. So you're going to see spotty reception at the most.

hmmmmm if i go Prime Ultra it will be an 1000W Gold no Titanium sadly .............but its not a big differnece in terms of price vs a focus plus 850w and 1 of the vendors have a hotdeal on making it almost same what u think should i go Focus plus 850w gold or Prime Ultra 1000W gold.
