Can an Evga 500w PSU run a 2070S windforce

So I'm looking to finally upgrade my GPU from an old GTX 1060 3gb to a new RTX 2070s 6gb, but I'm worried about my PSU now being strong enough. Is an Evga 500w white, and when I look up answers I'm getting very mixed responses on if its enough. what makes it worse is the amazon page doesn't say a required power amount so in kinda in the dark. so could someone please help me and if it's definitely not enough could you suggest a new PSU?
 
 
I have seen on other forums people wanting to know the other parts of the pc to give an answer so here it is as follows:
Intel i7700k
GTX 1060 3gb
Evga 500w 100-W1-0500-K3
Kingston Fury Black 16GB (2x8GB)
Seagate SSHD 7200RPM 3.5" 1TB
Seagate Ironwolf 7200RPM 3.5" 8TB
 
Thanks

500 watts is plenty. However, EVGA'S 80+ white units are terrible. What would be your budget for a replacement?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.
