IRONBATMAN Honorable Aug 30, 2013 3,359 0 13,460 Nov 13, 2013 #2 The R9 280x is actually a rebranded HD 7970. as you can see , they are very similar. but the HD 7970 comes with 3 free games . http://www.amd4u.com/radeonrewards/ The HD 7970 qualifies for the Gold class reward. and yes , the CX750 is enough. I couldn't find the actual specs , but this thread should convince you http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1834929/280x-psu-requirement.html Upvote 0 Downvote
