That power supply isn't good enough to fit in a build with an i7-6700 + GTX 970. As you'd know, the power supply is what powers the system and is thereby the key element to your PC. You want one that will deliver the necessary power easily for 4-5 years or longer. The Zalman ZG500-GV won't ensure that I don't think.

What about Antec TruePower Classic 550W? My current PC is using it so I can just do a switcheroo
