Is the Corsair Builder Series CX 600 Watt ATX/EPS 80 Plus (CX600) good for the GTX 970?

Link to the amazon page for the PSU: https://www.amazon.ca/Corsair-Builder-Watt-EPS%C2%A080-CX600/dp/B0092ML0OC/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1466170897&sr=8-4&keywords=psu

Will it be enough for the GTX 970?

Another additional question if anyone here knows:

Will my PC handle the GTX 970?

Specs: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2320 CPU @ 3.00GHz, 3001 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s) 6GB Ram, 1.5TB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce GT520 1GB Graphics card

It's not a great power supply , but if your on a budget it can easily handle a single 970 in that system.

Alright, i see! Thanks for the answer! I guess i'll have to go around 100-150 range to get gold rating.

Has nothing to do with Gold rating , that's just a measurement of efficiency , there are plenty of great BRONZE units on the market.
