The corsair cx600m is a great option. It's a semi modular, well built psu for pretty cheap.

I'd recommend the CX550M over that. While the green CXMs aren't bad at all, the grey CXMs are newer, quite a bit better in quality, and are still an excellent value, and 550 W is more than enough power.

For a 970 a Corsair CX550M or EVGA 650GQ should work fine. Both are inexpensive and will have plenty of power for ya.

It would work but the XFX XT is cheaper and better.

It would but the CX550M is better. The old green CX series isn't great.

What I use with the same GPU and I think it's great, 0 issues through multiple power cuts (due to where I live I get them a lot)

*kaboom* *OP shits himself*

XFX screwed up with the data. The caps should be rated for 105c. 

Also, it being outsourced shouldn't matter. http://www.orionpsudb.com/news/the-mystery-of-xfx-budget-xt-line-solved-oem-and-platform-discovered

Ah, I guess it makes them just that little better :D 

 

Still wouldn't recommend them when the TS are about the same price and are better in quality in basically every way :P
