It is not enough, I would suggest upgrading to a HX750 or Seasonic X850 or the Cooler Master V1000 (Seasonic X1050 rebadged).

nVidia says 500 for system + 170 for 2nd card ....

Here is Guru3Ds power supply recommendation:

GeForce GTX 760 - On your average system the card requires you to have a 550 Watt power supply unit.
GeForce GTX 760 SLI - On your average system the card requires you to have a 700 Watt power supply unit.

If you are going to overclock GPU or processor, then we do recommend you purchase something with a bit more stamina.
