Can the Corsair CX 750W PSU power the:

Sapphire Radeon TRI-X R9 280X 3GB, Intel Core i5-4690K, 2 HDDs (1TB Each), 1 CD drive thing and 8GB RAM??

And is everything compatible with the ASUS B85M-G motherboard??

It's not that they have low quality capacitors, it's that they don't have the same ones that their high end series ones do. They actually explain it at their site and go in to describe how they calculate the expected life under normal operation at 15 years for their budget minded series. Not quite sure about the CX ones, but it's probably pretty similar.
