Am about to pull the trigger this weekend on my new build and I only have this choice left to make but I haven't seen any benchmarks comparing the two, only 460sli vs a single 480.
I'll be running an i7-930 with 3 24" monitors at 1920x1080, using the system for development work, playing fps's, SC2 and 5-boxing WoW mostly so I'm not sure I really need the extra power of the 480's but the increased bus width and memory on them may help with running 5 WoW clients.
I am currently leaning towards the 460's based on a price/performance basis but if the 480's run significantly higher they are still within budget....I'm just not sure that even on everything maxed that the 460's will really be stressed at the res I'll be running.
