Will 860w Corsair PSU do for this system?

Build:
Corsair 780t
i7 5930K
16GB DDR4 RAM 2800Mhz
2x 780 Ti
1TB Seagate Barracuda
3TB Seagate Barracuda
Corsair GS 128GB SSD
Samsung 256 Evo Pro SSD
6* SP120 Fans
3* AF 140 fans

Water Cooling:
EK D5 Vario X-TOP
EK Supremacy Evo CSQ
2* EK 780 Ti Backplate
EK X3 250 Res
2* EK 780 Ti Water Blocks
Alphacool 360mm RAD
PrimoChill 3/8" Tubing
14 PrimoChill Revolver Fittings

Will 860w PSU be enough? I know many don't require power. I just copy pasted it from somewhere else. The reason i am asking is because i already have a Axi 860w lying around and would really like to use it.

Yes if you're not pushing the gpu's and cpu very hard with overclocking, if you do you're on the edge I think...

Doesn't the Axi 860w come with a handy tool that lets you check it's power usage?

Assuming you don't try to push everything out of both the CPU and GPU it should work. I however would prefer to get a higher wattage PSU, as it would make it more efficient.
