Here is my build so far http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2H857.

My question is what kind would be a good psu pick for this card with some room for card improvements? Looking to spend hopefully around 70 or 80 at max.

i dont understand why are you going with crossfire .
Most games dont even support crossfire.
And crossfire of those cards wouldnt give you much benefit.
Its better to go with one expensive card than two low performing cards.
It will create more heat ,noise and more instability.
And go with samsung evo 840 series , they will give better read and write speed.
And if you want to use these cards go for a psu of wattage 650 watt from seasonic or corsair except their cx series which will also give you some headroom for future upgrade.

Going with two 7750 , that means around 200$.
You can get a r9 270x for that price point.
Its a very good card.

I was thinking maybe the GeForce 760 but they are both nice!
