Dell T620 power supply upgrade

I have a Dell T620 server with dual 495W PSUs and a single Xeon E5-2603 (80W). I plan on upgrading to two Xeon E5-2670 v2 (115W each) processors.I'm wondering if I will need to upgrade the PSUs to either 750W or 1100W PSUs. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

You can check the curent power consumption under heavy load, for example with this tool - https://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/ (ipmi-oem dell get-power-consumption-data) and then decide.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll give it a try at a later time. I haven't installed an operating system nor the CPUs onto the server yet. I'm just doing some research and checking my list twice.I don't want to damage any of the system components without doing my due diligence.
