My PC has been shutting down lately during gaming, I've narrowed it down to a faulty PSU. Unfortunately, currently I can only afford a PSU at a maximum of $120AUD with shipping. I'm wondering if the Thermaltake 600W Smart RGB 80+ will be good for gaming with a GTX1070 and an Intel Skylake i7 6700K 4-Core 4.2GHz.
Thermaltake 600W Smart RGB 80+ good for intense gaming?

GTX1070 needs about a 500w psu.
650w or so will allow you a future graphics upgrade.
As to the particular unit, I do not know about the quality.
Thermaltake has units that vary from tier 1 to tier 7.

The last part I would go cheap on is the psu.
Try to pick a tier 1/2 unit if you can.
Seasonic is always good.
