Default Corsair HX1000 vs Tagan BZ1300

I had read several positive reviews of the Corsair HX1000 and was going to get one of these through my local hardware dealer, but it seems that the Corsair distributor in our country has run out of stock for this model and its going to be a while before they get new stock for this unit (especially since 1000W+ PSU are slow moving items).

However he has the Tagan BZ 1300 in ready stock. Its going to cost me roughly $70 (our currency translated to US $) over the Corsair HX1000. Though some of the BZ series Tagan units like BZ 800 and BZ900 got decent positive feedback, I am not sure about the BZ1300 since there are very few reviews.

I am not sure whether I should go ahead and get this Tagan PSU or wait it out till the Corsair HX1000 gets back in stock? Need your opinion guy's. Would be even great if anyone with this PSU can share their experience of the same.

One thing you definitly don't want to do is cheap out on the PSU due to lead time...

Wait for the corsair like wolf said.
