So I am making a new build and wanted to get the proper power supply, PC partpicker suggests a 760 watt power supply along with other calculators I've checked are similar. But that is not with the Fans/pump and/or lighting if I decide to put some in.
But I've read that my GPU's and CPU can generate close to 1000 watt power draws when overclocking, but this is something I can not confirm yet as I have not gotten every part for the build to test it.
I did not figure that out until after I ordered a 1000 watt PSU (Seasonic Prime 1000W).. My question is, should I return my PSU and get like a 1200-1300 watt or just stay with my 1000 watt?
Here is some references to my build:

Anyone with a similar setup who could confirm this for me before I RMA my current power supply?
Edit: Sources of my concerns for power draw.
CPU
My two GPU's
