Two questions:
1. I picked up a CX750M for $99+tax ($108 total). Is this a decent replacement if I plan to Xfire a 280x when prices come back down? If not, can you suggest one at the same exact price? (budget is FIRM)
2. How much am I going to see in savings from 80+ Certified vs. Bronze or Gold?
Thanks!!
