Newegg reviews are worthless.
Efficiency doesnt work that way either bro. For example an 85% efficiency PSU at 1kw would be pulling 1150W from the wall. You dont take its output away b/c of efficiency.
Unless [h] or jonnyguru reviewed this or comes in and stamps their approval, a $99 1.1kw PSU is likely crap.

Your PC could be run with a Corsair 550w. A 650w (corsair still) allows for as much OCing as you could possibly want.
That "1100w" is best avoided.
Here ya go, $10 cheaper and guaranteed to put out an honest 650w (probably more then the 1100w can put out, really):

I love how the efficiency says "up to 85%" kinda like how Comcast advertises their speeds will go up to a certain advertised amount.

All companies do that. They are saying that A. it depends on the total power draw from the psu and B. the temperature in which the psu is running. Higher temps means less efficient. Example, running the psu in a 90*F room would probably not achieve the 85% efficiency while running it in a 65*F room most likely would. 
And Ps. The ratings from comcast are most often area dependant. Old homes with poor wiring, a bad modem, poor neighborhood wiring as well. We have comcast and on speedtest.net I only pull around 20mb's download.
