Performance = 4850 in CF
Value for money = 4850 in CF
Convinience and power consumption = GTX 460
Stability = GTX 460
It comes down to what your client wants most.
Bear in mind I think the OP is looking at the 1GB 4850 not the 512MB.
In my opinion, a single GTX 460 is the better option as it will still trade blows with the 4850 in CF without the headache. Get a SLI ready motherboard and stick in a second GTX 460 later!
