Also, I have a Corsair AX750. Will both of these suffice if I add another 680 to my rig

That makes no sense as you have things completely backwards.Yeah like everybody else has said, it'll be fine especially at 1920x1080. Maybe if you were gaming at 5760x1080 then you'd choke up a bit but at 1080, I think you'll be fine. Even if you start to run out of CPU horsepower, you've got so much GPU muscle that you'll still be able to shred 1080.

Lol no. Higher resolutions put more load on the gpu. How are you a member here for this long and dont even understand something as basic as this? Using your logic then we should be getting faster cpus for 4k instead of adding more gpu power?Higher resolutions put more load on the CPU. How is that backwards?
at least he's not banned right?..How are you a member here for this long and dont even understand something as basic as this?

Pay attention to the actual context. He was saying that the OP would be more limited by his cpu at higher resolutions in general than at 1080 which is nonsense. The OP's cpu would more of limitation for 680 sli at 1920x1080 than it would at a higher res and anyone with a lick of sense knows that.at least he's not banned right?..
In fact yes, The higher resolution will put the more load into the GPU and the Higher resolution you will need more GPU power yes, however the CPU will be loaded more too specially in the case of 5760*1080 because the View distance its way greater, than 1920x1080, so yes, at 4k you need a powerfull CPU too.. same case apply for framerate.. one thing its 1920x1080@60hz and other pretty different to +120hz.. he will need way more CPU horsepower at the same resolution just to keep feeding both GPUs.. and in those cases that 2500K can cause a hit in the performance even at 4.2ghz..

The cpu is not going to run out of steam at higher resolutions. It would be his gpus that were getting more load.No. I said his CPU would be more likely to run out of steam at the higher resolutions but at 1920x1080 with a pair of GTX680's, it wont be an issue.

I already said his cpu was fine too. It will be nearly pegged at times though and that's a fact. The only shooter that will be held back is Crysis 3 in some very cpu intense spots.That misterbobby guy is very condescending, don't listen to him. OP You will be fine. Load up the most demanding game you have and watch how your CPU handles it. I doubt it comes anywhere near max load during gameplay. I know the only issues I've had with my 2500K have been lack of GPU power, so I tone back settings a bit and I'm fine.
EDIT: You do know when they test cpus in gaming for bottlenecks they LOWER the resolution.
