I'm intending to build a 2 x R9 280X with 850W PSU - which mobo CPU should I get?

Where should I mine for most profits?

pretty much any mobo will run 2 cards - if You don't plan to expand, that is Smiley
if You intend to use it only for mining then get cheapest parts:

It does not make sense to mine Bitcoin with GPUs. This is one of the more profitable altcoin pools I have found:

Get a AMD motherboard with at least 2 pci-e x16 slots. A Sempron processor is all you need to mine.

Try middlecoin or multipool, you will be able to mine the most profitable scrypt coins automatically....

Try poolwarz
and get a mobo that can take up to 5 or 6 PCIe Vcards. Just in case you want to upgrade your miner Smiley
And check coinwarz to see the most profitable scrypt altcoin to mine. (i had amazing results with dogecoin for example, now i'm mining coino)
