power supply unit, not cpu
you're probably looking at getting a 960

tbh, i would hold out til you get $300 and get a 970 or 380 otherwise you're looking at upgrading once a year

yes and nope.
Simple:
In order to crossfire you need 2 identical cards. two 580s or 2 390s.

Complicated:
The new API, Dx12, purportedly can use any cards mixed together. They have shown tests where this works.
However it means you could only use both these cards on games that run Dx12, which currently there are none.
So to keep it simple, don't mix them. ^_^

new cards:
there are some new cards coming in 2016, but probably not in time for your birthday, given how vague nvidia has been about it.
