550w PSU with 80+ bronze

Would you not get more performance by spending the same amount of money on ONE faster card, not use the apu video, and not have to deal with 3 way crossfire, which quite a few games do not support?

What is your cost on two 7750's?

Don't get those two cards.. Simple get the Gigabyte R9 270X GDDR5-2GB
. you will surely get a better performance from that card than the HD 7750 Crossfire

Yep, I kind of thought a faster single card in the OP's budget would be a much better solution with fewer potential headaches.

Especially since crossfire set ups share the vram, a 270x or whatever with 2 gb vram will perform better all the way around.
And cost about the same.

Stretch the budget very little for a R280, and be a happy camper. You have enough psu for it.
