Conclusions
During my testing, the Tagan BZ1100 1100W power supply was very stable and did not have any failures or other performance issues. There were tiny fluctuations on all rails but the voltages stayed well within ATX standards.
The Tagan BZ1100 1100W has both stability and silence, features modular design with nice LED PipeRock connectors, Active PFC, >80% efficiency, support for 8-Pin PCI-Express, Black Anti-scratch painting chassis, as well as six +12V rails with TURBO Mode feature.
