Hey everybody!
I'm running an i5 760 2.6 overclocked to about 3.6
an asus P7P55D
12 gb of gskill ram
and seasonic 620w bronze series
And I want to upgrade to the EVGA's 780 with ACX Cooler.
My question is, will the PSU be enough for the GPU with all of the other stuff that are inside?
Do I need to upgrade? and if so, to what PSU?
Thanks!

Your PSU should be able to handle that setup. Just make sure your PSU has the power connectors for the card (a 6-pin and a 8-pin if I recall correctly).
If you want to check it yourself (best way of doing things), you've got a nice built-in wattage calculator on PCPartPicker.com which is somewhat accurate.
If you feel a need of upgrading to a better PSU, you have a variety of good products from Corsair, Seasonic, EVGA, Rosewill etc. You can't really go wrong there.

Thanks for the asnwer! I was worried the PSU wouldn't be able to handle it, and my local PC shop did not know if I should upgrade or not. ._.
