You still should be fine.

My 1080 TI SC2 Hybrid did not arrive yet (About to SLI these two bad boys) and I'm worried about power consumption, will 1000W Corsair RM1000 (Gold efficiency) suffice? My specs are in my signature. I have 9 fans total also. Not sure if I'm correct with my calculations of 775W?

Main PC:

CPU: Intel Core i9 14900KS SP 109 (125P-79E) (6.1Ghz P-Cores 4.8Ghz E-cores) MC SP 88

CPU Voltage: LLC6 1.43V

1st Loop: 5x 480mm XE CoolStream radiators with 1x Revo D5 RGB pump and 1x Rajintek Antila D5 Evo RGB pump for GPU only cooling with 2x Koolance QDC3, red coolant

2nd Loop: 5x 480mm XE CoolStream radiators with 1x Revo D5 RGB pump and 1x Rajintek Antila D5 Evo RGB pump for CPU only cooling with 2x Koolance QDC3, purple coolant

3x 360mm PE EKWB CoolStream 

3rd Loop: 1x 240mm PXE CoolStream radiator with 1x EKWB Revo D5 pump (RAM ONLY) - Back of the case

 

2nd Main PC is same as above, except Display is Philips Evnia 49" 5120x1440 240hz QD-OLED, 48GB 8400Mhz RAM, 8TB NVMe

1000W is overkill for anything really, you should be 100% okay.
