For what it's worth, I use Sapphire Radeon's HD4870X2 (2 cars so 4 GPUs) and have found them to be exceptionally robust.
And let me say it again, *nothing* I have thrown at these cards has slowed them down, not even slightly, despite serious effort into hacking games into doing things they're not supposed to do. Using max, max, max settings and increasing LOD to infinity, for example.
The latest cards are fast, sure. But they're overkill and marketing nightmares. Besides, you will have some *serious* noise levels with the fans these new cards run. Bottom line, even today, I'd run a single X2 Radeon over 1 single card. Half the price (if not more) and performance that's just as good in the real world.
So unless all you do is run benchmarks, save some money.
