TOXIC would give you better performance and probably higher power consumption.
And costs much more. Don't forget about that. Wink

ASUS R9280X-DC2-3GD5
or
Sapphire TOXIC R9 280X

and what motherboard + cpu + psu should i buy.

Here are the MB/CPU/RAM I used for 5x GPU for under $200, plus another $200 for a pair of 750W PSUs (which can run 5 undervolted 280xs).

ASUS and Sapphire are both good brands, so I don't think you can go wrong with either one. I've heard those TOXIC 280x can reach upwards of 800KH/s, which is crazy good. However, that requires obscene overclocking and even overvolting, which I would avoid.
