Will the Asus strix 970 bottleneck on this setup?

it would make it so it performs like it should without crashing

if you have a poor psu and you try to get its rated wattage they tend to blow up taking other parts with them

what make and model is your psu?

would getting a better psu increase performance or will it just make me able to upgrade further?

I'm looking for a PC to buy so I just know the specs not the brand of the PSU sorry.
The only thing I know is that it is 500w will it be fine?

if you dont know it, then you need to open the pc case and take a look at it or ask the people selling it what model it is

dont risk such a nice card as a 970 strix on a crap power supply

System performance can definitely be affected by psu quality and wattage
If the quality is bad or you dont have enough watts to power the build, performance will be affected
