I don't know if you should upgrade but if you do go for the evga psu

A Seasonic X-series is as good or better than a large handful of EVGA PSUs.

So I wanted to build a pc. I am going to use A Ryzen R5 1600 CPU and 2 Galax (KFA2) GTX 1070. I also planning to OC the cpu (around 3.8 - 4.0 GHz, Going to use Deepcool Captain EX 240 AIO) So now i wanted to ask something, is 650W Seasonic X Series PSU is enough?? If not, should i buy EVGA G2 750W or Seasonic X-750?

650W is plenty for two 1070s in SLI.

It should honestly be more than enough, even with both cards overclocked and under load.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.
