It really makes no difference. ATI and AMD are under the same roof now, but ATI cards will work just fine on Intel processors. It really depends on the actual GPU on how well it'll perform. Personally I like evga cards (all Nvidia) but that's personal preference.

As for CF/SLI, I'd suggest getting one good card over two mediocre cards. You will almost always end up with better performance in the end. Multi-cards are only really good for extreme systems (a pair of the highest of the high-end cards)
