Multi-million dollar Cheyenne supercomputer auction ends with $480,085 bid — buyer walked away with 8,064 Intel Xeon Broadwell CPUs, 313TB DDR4-2400 ECC RAM, and some water leaks
Is my PSU gonna be able to handle the R9-280x?

Yes I've read that the recomended minimum PSU for this card is 600w. With 700w you will be fine. The TDP of this card is 250w btw.
Also reading a review about your PSU : http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Cougar-CMX-700-W-Power-Supply-Review/1317/9
It's efficiency has 80 plus certification. Based on the same review I think it's fine

Thats a very bad quality PSU, don't risk it. Just get a quality 650W psu, for example http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1650snlb9

Well on second thought about your PSU there's that :
"The main problem with this power supply is voltage regulation. Starting at 560 W, voltages got outside their allowed range, what can make your computer behave erratically. We tested two samples, and both presented the same problem. Therefore, we can’t recommend this unit."
So I guess with a power hungry gpu there may be problems. Go for CorSair TX series I got really satisfied with em

Before this question I recommended you a high quality unit, nearly half the price(because 650W is enough) comapred to that one Boss told ya.
Btw XFX is better quality than Corsair TX series.
Have fun!

What i've found is this one http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/5800/seasonic-m12ii-750w-evo-edition-750-watt-80-plus-bronze-psu-review/index5.html
but i calls it Evo edition. If the psu you talk about it's good aye
Your options are too many the thing is how many budget you have. Call me a Corsair fanboy maybe but I really like them and I am very satisfied with em. I live in a place with kinda unstable power, especially when thunderstorms occur we experience sudden power cut.
Corsair is ultra safe "Over-voltage and over-current protection, under-voltage protection, and short circuit protection provide maximum safety to your critical system components."
Anyway it's up to you what you choose.
