For what you pay it is a very good Budget card... Tho, I'm Biased when it comes to graphics cards I Have to get the Best of the Best.
The 560ti I have heard is extremely good as a single card for its price.

Pretty much any two cards run in SLI if had the money spent into a better single card will get out performed. Not to mention the increased heat in your case form the xtra card.

I see SLI technology as a good option in the future (year or two down the track from when you buy your PC) when you want a bit more performance and card prices have come down but you dont want to go and buy a whole new GPU. In this case SLI may be good

P.S. if anyone has a XFX 9800GTX 512mb DDR3 720 mhz for sale PM me as I wanna SLI it
