I have a XSPC EX360 radiator cooling my 4770K and GTX 770. I'm going to be adding another GTX 770 in a few weeks. Will this radiator be enough? Or should I add another radiator?

honestly, no it will not if you add a second GPU and might be a bit loud on the fan

speed to keep it cool enough with a single GPU, but depending on your overclocking

skills, devices selected and obviously the fan choices. i'd say marginal on the temps

on overclocking as your fans will be 1800rpm+ or better to keep it cool enough and

louder for most tastes.

A 770 is a 230W TDP card. Two of them is 460W TDP, without any overclocking. A single EX360 with 800rpm fans at 10C delta will cool about 330W. So no I don't think its really enough, it will require relatively noisy fans to do it. If there is no CPU in the loop however then actually you can run a warm loop and it will be fine. GPUs don't need 10C delta like CPUs do.

Thanks guys. I'm pretty sure i'll be adding a 240mm rad to the loop and upgrade my pump. And i'm using my EX360 with Corsair SP120s, and also probably will be using SP120s on my 240mm rad.
