Will a XFX TS 550W Power Supply 80 Plus Golds' connectors fit a GTX 970

A GTX 970 apparently needs a 6pin connector and an 8 pin connector. will this psu have one as it says 2x 6+2 pci connector?

Yes. Its a 6+2 connector meaning 6pins are attached and 2 separate, so you take the two pins off for the 6pin connector and leave them on for the 8pin.

Yes that psu has enough pcie plugs for a GTX 970.
A 6+2 pin pcie plug can be used as a 6 pin or an 8 pin.
