Building a fairly cheap gaming PC. Plans to buy an rx 480 and provide head room for buying a second one and do crossfire.

Storage not an issue - I have an ssd and hhd on hand.
Is 750w mostly overkill for this build, even with 2 of the rx 480s? Also, should I buy the reference card or wait for some aftermarket 480s?
Overall advice on the build would also be appreciated.
