Proper bb cups for campagnolo cx cranks

I am looking at putting some campagnolo cx cranks on my duende and moving my athena group over to my new to me ti bike. Both are power torque. Can I just use the existing power torque cups or do I have to use a different style for the cx cranks?

Nope, use same cups..there are 'CX' cups, little better sealing but intercompatible with all PT cranks.

I have a set of the Campy CX cranks with the CX cups. My understanding was the only difference with the cups was additional / better seals to keep the gunk out. I'm sure oldpotatoe will be along shortly with a definite answer. If you don't already have the cranks you can get them here at a huge discount.
