It's mainly for my work, so I need one pretty quick. Was wanting to order before the 1st so I can write it off on my taxes.

If your on a budget then getting two cards is never better than spending lil extra on one better card.

Honestly, two 9800gt cards would be great if you can put out the money, it wouldn't be too much. Just keep in mind, the extra card if not mistaken is only going to boost performance about 25 percent without getting into all the techy mumbo jumbo.
