Ok so I'm about to upgrade to an r9 280x dual-x from sapphire and i was wondering
would my Fortron Raider 550W 80+ bronze handle the r9 280x, it has 2x6+2 pins
on it so i guess you can plug in some real beasts on it but im not using an i5 cpu
so I'm really worried if my FX 8320 at 4.6 ghz, (+0.050v) and a r9 280x can work
both at the same time at 99%, i know that wont happen unless i do it with some
benchmarks on both of them simultaneously but still.. any opinions on this?

You'll be alright. You'll be at the upper end of what the PSU can do. But it should be ok.
