Hey guys, I'm in the process of finalizing my first build and would really appreciate the opinion of more experienced people. Here's what I have in mind:

CPU+MB: i5-6500 and H110M-PRO VHL @ $412 (PC Themes)
RAM: Kingston Value Memory 8GB DDR4-2133 CL15 NON-ECC 1.2V Desktop Memory @ $46
GPU: Zotac GTX 970 4GB Twin Fan @ $419
SSD: ZOTAC T500 240GB SSD (Phison S10 + Toshiba TLC) @ $82.50
HDD: (Holding off on it until more discounts available)
PSU: Superflower Leadex Silver 90+ Full Modular 550W @ $119 / THERMALTAKE LITEPOWER 550W POWER SUPPLY @ $69.90
CASE: Armaggeddon PC Case Miicrotron T2Z Black @ $49.90
OS: Microsoft Windows 8 Professional 64-bit Product Key [OEM] @ $30 (Reddit)

What's the difference between the two PSU since they both supply 550W? Would it be better to go for the cheaper one/which one should I get?
Is the CASE big enough to house the components listed?
Are there any problems with the RAM listed?

Keeping within my budget of $1200 do you guys have any suggestions on how to improve this build? Thanks all in advance:s13::s13:

Is there much difference between the Microtron T2Z and the T2X? I prefer the design of the T2X more but the T2Z was suggested to me.
