After much deliberation I've settled on this build for my $1000 gaming PC. I'll list it as it stands, with a 460 (I intended to add another later for SLI).
Problem is I have like another week or two before ordering, so I'm driving myself nuts with options. Now I'm thinking about starting with a 470 instead. Then adding another one of THOSE later. Wondering if it's worth it. Here's the current setup:
i5 760 and ASUS P7P55D-E PRO mobo combo:

MSI cyclone 1gb gtx 460

Antec 300 illusion case

XFX black edition 750W PSU

*would this PSU be able to handle SLI 470s???*
G.skill 4gb ram

Hyper 212 heatsink/fan

Spinpoint F3 HD
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152185
ASUS DVd burner
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135204
All of the above comes out to right at 1000, which is what I was shooting for. Question is, is it worth spending the extra ... what, $100 bucks on a 470 instead??? I mean maybe the 460 is close enough and good enough in SLI and sufficiently cheaper to make it the wiser choice.
Seeking thoughts and suggestions.
