Dual 7600's or One 7900GT

I am looking at a new machine,
MSI Board,
Athlon XP x2 3800,
2 Gig Corsair XMS

Question would be, Would I be better going with dual 7600 GT's or doing one single 7900GT or a 7800GT.
I have dual monitor setup and heard of some issues with that and SLI, I havent heard what problems.

Lets get some input.
