I'm wondering how much wattage I will need. My 760 says it needs 500 minimum but will that be enough or will I need to go with 550W?

NOTE: The GPU isn't in the build because I just purchased it for the free Assassins Creed 4 (NVIDIA GIFT)

You could run a PC with an overclocked 760 off a quality ~450w unit if you use a Molex to PCI power adapter and don't use other parts that are outrageously power-hungry. you would need the adapter because most 450w units come with one 6-pin connector.
