I have this:
2500k
asus p8z68-v-lx
corsair 650tx
2x HD, 1x CD R/RW
1xwireless PCI card
1 6870

If I were to add a second 6870 would I have enough room for the wireless card? If not is there any way round this ? So far all sources indicate power is enough (roughly 300W or 25A on the 12v rail).
 
As long as you have the wireless card in the lowest PCI slot or the one between the cards, you will have enough space. However I don't think that I would recommend getting another. Your motherboard runs at x16 x4. I am not too sure if there will be a performance hit when you run the 6870 in the x4 slot. You should be good with your PSU but it is cutting it a bit close. If you are overclocking I don't know if it would be enough.
 
Id sell the 6870,and upgrade to a better single card like a 670-680-7950 etc.
