Yes, 750 watts is plenty for an AMD FX-8320 & GTX 980.

I want to upgrade my existing PC but i don`t want to buy a new PSU.

My specs:

 

PSU: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-Modular-Warranty-110-B1-0750-VR/dp/B00K85X23O/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1452442571&sr=1-1&keywords=EVGA+supernova+750b

 

GPU: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-SUPERCLOCKED-Graphics-03G-P4-3663-KR/dp/B008S15X64/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1452443178&sr=1-1&keywords=Nvidia+GTX+660+FTW+3GB+GDDR5

 

Processor: http://www.amazon.com/AMD-FD6300WMHKBOX-FX-6300-6-Core-Processor/dp/B009O7YORK/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1452442647&sr=1-2&keywords=AMD+fx+6300

I want to upgrade the Processor and GPU to this:

It would be enough for two 980's.

 

8320 is a little weak for a 980 though.

Yes, it will handle it.

But keep your CPU if you plan only on gaming that FX8000 series wont make much of a difference in your gaming performance. Just step up your GPU and save money for i5 later.
