I can't really tell what PSU I have and don't know how to find out(I can't see a brand on the PSU) but it worked fine with my GTX660 and I don't know if it'll work with a GTX760 too.
I got my PSU from a friend that works with computers in a box without name,he said the PSU he gave me can hold servers.So yeahh....that's it.
If you know a program that can tell me my PSU specifications I would greatly appreciate it :D

The 760 requires at most 30 Watts more than a 660, so if your PSU can run a 660, a 760 would be hardly any different.

Also I would never use an unbranded PSU.

Hello... Every electrical product has a label and international code or #'s on it... for further information, ( you might have to Remove it from your case too read it )

Here is the data sheets I use for specing Nvidia power requirements...

You could be needing a mere 30 more watts of 12Vdc which is about 2.5 more amps, I wouldn't worry about that.

Ok,I pulled the PSU out and it is a Thermaltake TR2-500 ATX 12V 2.0
Do you think it is enough?

Hello... The important # on your PS label is the current rating of your +12Vdc... it is the Workhorse of your GPU and CPU... +3.3V@22A, +5V@18A, +12V1@18A, +12V2@17A, -12V@0.3A, +5VSB@2.5A and both your +12Vdc lines are capable of over 200 watts.
