Usually the single card "dual pcb" setups perform really well but when paired with a second nvidia x2 card, things get squirly. I'd overclock one of the cards and see about gaming performance. With my 9800gx2's I got a nice overclock and better game performance from running just a single card as opposed to quad slo.

You could always sell off the second card to pay for a nice waterblock, wc loop.

Incidentally, the ati x2 cards don't seem to suffer the quad sli blues.
