I am currently building a new gaming computer and i am unsure if my old power supply will work with my new components,
This is my old power supply:

This is my new motherboard and processor

Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI HERO
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/MAXIMUS_VI_HERO/

Processor: Intel Core i5-4670K

The psu you need is determined by the graphics card you plan on using.
What gpu will you be using?
600w is normally sufficient, but OCZ is a mixed bag on psu quality.
A poor quality unit will not deliver advertised power.
Check this list:

And... I think I would buy a Z97 based motherboard today. It will allow future broadwell upgrades and should not cost any more.
