It's a tough one, I know that I would be happy with either of the 1st two, perhaps even more so with the GT280GTX if it did not cost so much money (I mean seriously the high end always used to be around the £300 mark!!)

In the UK 2 4870 cards will cost the same as a Zotac GT280GTX AMP! as prices were leaked for an hour until (£210 inc vat). = £420 for two

Well Ive seen factory overclocked 9800gx2 for £289 + £20 delivery

And GTX 260 for £240

GTX 260 would be my choice, overclocking to GTX 280 performance is possible.
