I would go with a 550W for a single GTX 970 or 750W if you plan to SLI.

What is your budget for the psu ?

Yeah 500W is perfectly fine.

Better quality non-modular and modular units, both built by Seasonic. The EVGA GS 650 is the same price as the 550w version until tomorrow. Both have a 5 year warranty.

YOUR BASKET
1 x EVGA Supernova GS 650W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply £71.99
1 x Antec TruePower Classic 550w '80 Plus Gold' Power Supply £59.99

The Antec one is solid, some are made by Seasonic and some by Delta. Nevertheless its better.
However I don't think EVGA is Seasonic from my own experience and a quick google search.

EVGA GS is Seasonic, as is the EVGA PS.

Both of the units I suggested are Seasonic, I wouldn't have said they were otherwise. This is a extremely useful resource for psu's.
