I wouldn't really call it a "legend". It advertises it has multirails for better protection but is actually single-rail. It uses a fairly old, 7 year-old, design, too. It's a decent power supply and should be reliable, but it's not like it's some legendary thing. It doesn't even support the Skylake sleep states (you can disable that in the BIOS, it just saves power when the computer is in sleep). It just seems a little ironic to use a legendary PSU with a Skylake CPU when that legendary PSU doesn't have full support of said CPU's features.

Well it does support Skylake CPUs. Just not the sleep states. And how can we make a recommendation without knowing your specs and country?

Well it will do a fine job, especially when you're on a budget.
I'd take a look at
Super Flower Leadex / Golden King
Corsair RMx
Seasonic G
XFX XTR / TS Gold
Ultimately the S12II will do just fine
450-550W are easily enough even with an i7
