Default Final Words


Final words

There were no surprises here. I expected this power supply to perform good. I have been using the smaller brother of this one ( Tagan BZ 800w ) myself for quite a while now. And it has proved its worth. And I expected good results from BZ 1300 as well.

And it didn’t disappoint. It has everything you want from a good power supply. It has modular design, its silent, it’s not very large like some other 1kw+ power supplies, and it performs well.

Tagan has paid attention to small things like bundled items, packaging, the modular power connectors, colour coding etc. And to top all this, it is not the most expensive power supply in its category. This power supply retails at $499 on newegg but can be found for US$370 elsewhere.

Now the Indian MRP is Rs.16900/- So by the international standards, this is good pricing for power supply for this. You might even find better pricing in shops.

So considering everything, it makes for a top quality power supply for the power user. There is not much to complain about this power supply. In fact, I can’t find anything to complain about. Sure Tagan is still considered as 2nd Tier manufacturer, but from their track record for last 2 years or so, they have proved themselves by delivering some really quality power supply units. This one definitely gets my vote.

If you want the power supply that will be able to power any desktop configuration out there today and for some time to come and have the money, you can safely spend it on this power supply.



Pros
  • Performance
  • Looks
  • Bundle
  • Modular
  • Silent
  • Good built Quality
  • Shielded Cables
  • Colour coded cables


Cons
  • Nothing really, its just heavy on pocket, but its not an ordinary power supply as well.



My Score Card

Built Quality: 9/10
Performance: 9.5/10
Bundle: 9.5/10
Price: 8.5/10
Overall: 9/10





Thanks to Tagan for making this wonderful power supply available for the review here at techenclave.

I've no words for you.

Totally jobless eh???

BTW let me go through the review.

EDIT: Oh damn. Get well soon dada.
Most of us take rest while we're unwell. Some do hardware reviews.

Nice review as always.
They've integrated the Turbo feature without a switch.

What happened to the CRO you'd before? Sent it back to the collg?

But the test system specs're jaw dropping. Damn.

Nice review , I was considering either this or the Tagan BZ1100 as an alternative for my Corsair HX1000 at one point of time when the HX1000 was out of stock, but decided to wait up and get the HX1000 in the end.

kinda shortish review by Funky's standards
but then there is a limit to the kinda hardware you can throw at a kw+ psu

its also nice to see a manufacturer going against the generic trend and actually bundling all these things. the antistatic gloves are a very nice tough imo.

ps-get well soon dada

Thx,

The background is a foam. You will get it at any shop that makes custom mattresses on order.
