It will likely be OK, Although I think you may want a tad more headroom to be on the safe side.

what you mean in more headroom

More headroom= 700/750 watts vs 650.

I guess the best way I can say this is if I already had the HX650 would I run your setup, Yes, If I were actually buying the PSU to run your system I would want to go with the 750 watt version. So in the end do I think the 650 can handle it, Yes, I would just feel more comfortable longterm running it with the 750 watt model.

At stock clocks, that system will take ~500-550w.
OC it and that goes up.

So if you aren't planning much OCing the 650 is fine.
If you plan to OC a bunch (really, if you plan on touching the voltages), get a 750.
