1. Budget: Under $2000, but when it's worth it I am willing to go more 2. Brands:No Preference 3. Multitasking: Yes, I have multiple applications running at once, adobe, firefox, IE, Utorrent, Word, etc. 4. Gaming: Yes, this is the main reason for my build, COD4, and all the new games... 5.

It is my opinion that you might be a little light on the PSU to run two of these cards. I would think you would need at a bare minimum a 750 with an 850 being a preferable PSU.

I hope he doesnt want to do any gaming ?
