IDK where you read, but you don't have to configure SLI profiles for games. I never have, and I've had my SLI rig for a year +.
And the x2 cards are nice. I'm currently rocking a 9800gx2, and I personally love it. SLI on a stick, plus I have a 8800gt in there to handle physics, there's not a game I can't max with decent framerates in 1680x1050 res.
Anywho, I still think you'll have a decent gaming rig, so no worries.
Make sure you come back and post pics and such. Us geeks like that sort of thing.

Or how about something like an older Matrox quad card?
