Its not a bad setup at all and would perform slightly better than a single HD3870. That being said I am not sure which would be a better way to go; a single 3850 or 70 or dual 3600s.
It all depends on what the price is. Any card is valuable so long as the price is right. If he can get two cards for less than the price of a 3850 I say go for it.
thats how it usually is... dont matter if your looking at SLI or Xfire...given that the new 3600's are only going to be slightly better than the 2600's so its safe to say you could base your answers off that.
my best guess you would approach 3850 lvl's of peformance in CF. 120spx2=240sp vs 320sp... though at higher res's it might do better for $200 since each card has 512mb vs the 256mb for the cheapest 3850...
